Sophisticated Integration
In an era marked by digital workplaces, using aging systems can frustrate growth. Upgrading systems, therefore, is an important thumb rule to thrive in the new. So, when our client wanted to upgrade their integration solution as a key step on its strategic roadmap, we took the challenge in our stride and promised to deliver the desired level of enterprise connectivity.

Key Challenges
End-to-end system integrations are of great importance to consolidate IT topology, build agility, and eliminate risk of failures. However, our client was struggling to achieve an uptime value and reduce overhead costs due to their old and obsolete integration solution that didn’t meet growing business needs.
Our client’s integration solution was built on the outdated webMethods (wM) version 9.8, which was incapable of handling multi-threaded workflow management and came in the way of developing incremental capabilities such as API Management, SaaS integration, and IoT integration.
Our client owns, operates, and invests in a portfolio of US-based businesses with specialization in international trade and financing, involving commodities, consumer goods, and industrial products. The organization also offer services in other functional areas, which include marketing, distribution, materials procurement, technology transfer, product sourcing, and supply-chain management.
We implemented the latest wM version 10.1 while eliminating the need of purchasing extended support for the existing 9.8 version. The team selected the components — Integration Server, My webMethods Server (MWS), Trading Network (TN), and JDBC Adapters—as a part of the upgrade solution to help the client optimize efficiency.
The upgrade was completed in a span of 10-12 weeks, which helped our client leverage and derive gains from latest API management features, Hybrid Cloud Integration, SaaS, and IoT integration in the shortest time possible.
The deployment of the new wM version catered to new-age integration needs of the organization, involving both people and processes. Our solution reinstated enterprise-wide service and support management, which provided impetus to operational efficiency aand scalability.
