An integration roadmap for the future
This book has introduced many technologies that affect the integration landscape of cloud computing, from API Management and Logic Apps to Azure Functions, BizTalk Server, and IoT Hubs. The current range of integration technologies is broad in reach and supports workloads in the cloud, on-premises, and between both.
None of us have a crystal ball, but it is possible to take a short look into the future and speculate on some of the ways these technologies may evolve:
- Microservices: So far, microservices have had only a limited impact in the enterprise, but it is safe to assume that they will become the new way to build agile and scalable integrated solutions of the future.
- Azure Service Fabric: This platform service is the basis for many other platform services, and it provides a good platform for highly scalable, highly distributed solutions. It supports both stateful and stateless applications as well as an ability to provide resilience and rolling updates...
