I’m sure you’ve all seen the news that Salesforce.com has purchased MuleSoft for approximately $6.5 billion. I see this deal as a huge validation for the integration market. Here are a few of my initial thoughts on this acquisition:
No Platform Is an Island
Integration is the watchword for our industry today. Enterprises must be able to link all their applications and data to ensure information can flow freely throughout their business. Only then can they leverage the tremendous power of analytics, not to mention take advantage of the latest innovations around AI and machine learning, IoT, and what’s next to come. This means no technology platform can exist as an island. Technology providers must provide links between their own solutions and those of other vendors in order to break down silos and encourage data sharing and innovation. https://goo.gl/nuamYo #DataIntegration #ML
