integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) and integration Connectivity as a Service (iCaaS) sound pretty similar, but in reality, how similar are they? We’re here to tell you why our product iCaaS has superior advantages.
Is iCaaS quicker to develop?
iCaaS has a ready-to-use design, coming with pre-built high availability and auto-scalability rules. Security design is already in place, ensuring a robust framework from the start. On the other hand, iPaaS has complex environment considerations. First the number of environments needed, and their specifications for high availability and sizing needs to be determined.
Is the setup for iCaaS easier?
With iCaas, there is a swift environment setup. Integration environments are built rapidly, bringing you just hours away from utilizing your integration capability. In comparison, with iPaaS you will face deployment hurdles, and questions when it comes to where iPaaS should be deployed for planned workloads.
iCaaS also has a ready-to-use design. It coms with a pre-built high availability and auto-scalability rules. Security design is already in place, ensuring a robust framework from the start. With iPaaS, you will have to plan the approach for developing, testing, and deploying integration services or APIs. You will need to consider handling exceptions, logging strategies, and the implementation of authorization and authentication for end-users.
Compare iCaaS with iPaaS
The iCaaS Advantage
All these factors are pre-configured, eliminating the need for further consideration. Your integration platform is ready within days, bypassing the lengthy project associated with iPaaS implementations. In summary, iCaaS is the natural and intelligent extension to iPaaS, providing you with a hassle-free journey to seamless integration capabilities.
With iCaaS:
- A customer can be up and running within days, improving ROI hugely.
- No customer expertise required, meaning less cost and more certainty of delivery.
- Overall cost up to 70% less than comparable iPaaS offering.
To compare iPaaS with iCaaS is to compare flat-packed furniture with pre-assembled furniture. They both have the potential to be good products but there is the possibility the flat-packed furniture can be assembled poorly, costing more and take much longer before in use.
