The role of API’s and ESB’s in the Modern Integration

APIs

  The modern advancement of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) plays a crucial role in creating the “API economy” through open interoperable standard and web-enabled communication protocol. The API-driven development approach became the de facto development best practice for integration.

ESB's

  At the backbone of many enterprise’s Integration is the ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) that provides reliable, decoupling, and guarantee the messaging for inter-service communication. With careful design, API and ESB pattern can work together to create the best solution.

Integration paradigms have changed

  Given the popular adoption of a cloud-first and partner-focus ecosystem, integration technologies and approaches have advanced considerably in the last few years. These are more advanced patterns include advancements such as:

  • Event-Driven Architecture to further decouple the messaging communication into streaming events

  • Service Mesh that combines the API approach to east-west service communication with ESB

  • Microservice Architecture to create light-weight and highly decoupled, scalable integration units

  • Serverless Architecture to take the paradigm even further with on-demand, responsive and scale-to-zero microservices.

  Given this complexity and specialisation of modern integration needs, many enterprises lack the experienced experts to architect, design, and develop a fit-for-purpose integration solution. is vital in optimising the value of Integration service.

Getting more out of your API / ESB connectivity

  Clients want to migrate their solution from a legacy to target integration platform that enables a microservice architecture in addition and supplementing the monolithic application.

  They want to create a partner eco-system through standardised and secure APIs. This includes the design and development of fit-for-purpose integration patterns, such as API, ESB, SOA, EDA, B2B, that minimise the solution complexity while maximising the reusability.
