Today, I would like to simplify the technical advantage that Nastel Technologies offers its clients. In a nutshell, Nastel is the leader in i2M (Integration Infrastructure Management) by managing a multi-middleware-platform infrastructure (MQ, Tibco, Kafka, Solace, …) from one interface.  

 

One of my clients recently shared that their boss told them to pick one middleware environment to address all their needs, which would come with its management software.

How do you manage a multi-platform infrastructure quickly and efficiently?

Most companies take their integration infrastructure for granted. I’m talking about middleware such as IBM MQ, Kafka, Solace, ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ. These form the basis of most enterprise-level businesses.

Just How Important Is Your Integration infrastructure?

November 2021 is a good month if you’re a Fortune 500 or Global 2000 enterprise.  The investments your organization has made in “integration” over the years were necessary as the organization and the IT infrastructure grew, but the Integration Infrastructure (i2) has likely been considered a necessary evil by senior management.  That investment can now be leveraged in two important, new ways.

Complex enterprises have an integration infrastructure (i2) layer that connects technologies and applications across cloud, data center, virtualized systems, mainframe, edge computing, etc.

Integration Infrastructure Management (i2M) is the “management” of the i2 layer and includes:

  • Configuration and security management
  • Monitoring and fault management
  • Alerting and automation
  • Performance optimization

The i2 layer includes a core middleware application (such as IBM MQ) along with many other “integration” technologies, such as MFT (managed file transfer), IoT, REST APIs, DataPower Gateway, and other messaging technologies (i.e., Kafka, TIBCO EMS, IBM ACE, IBM Integration Bus (IIB) and more).

Integration is now the #1 IT expense category at many enterprises and new complexities increase the burden on Service Delivery, CI/CD, IBM MQ administration, and other “integration professionals” every day.  Your enterprise has Microservices, Mobile, Mainframes, Cloud, and more applications and application updates than you can count and it takes the routing of transactions, messages and more through a rapidly growing integration infrastructure layer to make it all work together.  That is now a trend.

Future Trends & Technology for Your Integration Infrastructure

The speed of Information Technology (IT) advancements is astounding. A few years ago, with a little commitment to study, someone could learn enough about IT to build a complete environment by themselves. But today’s hyper-virtualized environments contain so many layers of technology that it takes teams of specialists to be able to build and manage.
