Digibee 2023 State of Enterprise Integration Report: The stories behind the data
Our second annual survey of the enterprise integration market was published today, unveiling some intriguing insights and generating plenty of discussion.
In reviewing the survey results, I was struck by one constant. Most organizations now consider integration to be a core requirement for their digital transformation initiatives. In fact, coupled with cloud migration (a critical enabler in most modernization projects), digital transformation is the top integration objective in the survey, with almost 30% of respondents ranking it number one.

What is Cloud-to-Cloud Migration (and Why Should You Care)?

Cloud Migration: Why It’s More Important Than Ever and How to Get it Right
Cloud migration isn’t a new concept by any stretch of the imagination. Cloud-based services have become so ubiquitous that we use them multiple times a day without a second thought. But despite the universal nature of cloud computing, what is changing is its importance in the business world.

Even though most organizations already use cloud technologies in some form, it’s still crucial to weigh the benefits of cloud migration against the risks and challenges it poses to your operations.
