What is integration?
IT integration, or systems integration, is the connection of data, applications, APIs, and devices across your IT organization to be more efficient, productive, and agile.
Integration is key when discussing business transformation—fundamental changes in how you conduct business to adapt as the market shifts—as it makes everything in IT work together.
What is API?
An API is a set of definitions and protocols for building and integrating application software. API stands for an application programming interface.
APIs let your product or service communicate with other products and services without having to know how they’re implemented. This can simplify app development, saving time and money.
