The analyst house uses a proprietary threshold criteria for vendor inclusion. Constellation believes an effective iPaaS is “accessed and managed in the cloud and addresses both data integration and application integration scenarios.” It should also support drag-and-drop functionality and minimize manual coding. Of course, the publication and management of APIs are a key tenet here as well.
