In today’s rapidly changing environment, IT departments face an increasing number of challenges, both internal and external. Aging legacy systems, integration needs, customer expectations, cyber-security threats, and emerging technologies are just a few of the many obstacles that CIOs must navigate to keep up with the pace of change. With all these headwinds, many CIOs realise that a new backbone architecture is required to drive new business models, comply with regulations, and remove all single points of failure. In this article, we explore how Marionete is helping IT departments overcome these headwinds and achieve success.

 

Off-the-shelf solutions, point-to-point integrations, and purpose-built choreography platforms are three approaches CIOs have taken to address these challenges. While off-the-shelf solutions promise to fix everything with a single strategy, integration is never easy and can lead to vendor lock-in and limited ability to influence development. On the other hand, point-to-point integrations connect different systems as needed but can quickly become complex and costly. Purpose-built platforms, like those offered by Marionete, provide a dedicated integration layer to manage complexity and provide flexibility, minimising changes to legacy systems and enabling efficient use of physical resources.
