Technology is rapidly transforming the workplace.
There is an increasing number of applications and services that provide businesses with powerful tools to be more efficient, effective and profitable and to serve their clients and customers. Each department within an organisation might use different applications and services, accessing best of breed technology to perform day to day tasks. With more and more ways for employees, partners and customers to communicate, how can organisations keep it all connected?
Applications, data sources, devices and APIs have multiplied. The risks are that a legacy environments won’t integrate well with new digital functions. Organisations need to be able to connect with external applications. On-premise systems need to communicate externally and internally, across an organisation. The environment must be secure.
So the solution for organisations is middleware, to integrate all the moving parts into a single and seamless service, connecting them to an additional layer of software that reduces complexity and fragmentation, and ensures that the use of new applications and services is not disrupted by a lack of connectivity or integration.
The role of Middleware in the modern workplace
With the explosion of new applications in the workplace, organisations are rapidly evolving and optimising operations to manage vast flows of information. To accommodate these changes with easy, incremental change management ensures the long production life of systems – and their return on investment – while syncing with new needs and systems.
The right middleware allows organisations to have a personalised view of each other through service abstraction. One side can be changed without impacting the other. Single requests can be concurrently distributed to multiple disparate end systems. New target systems can be added and run in parallel with existing systems. The old system can be removed later for a smooth and safe upgrade.
