No code and low code integrations are all the rage in app development today. Over the past decade we've seen various approaches to integration and app development including code (recently known as full code), specialized integration languages, DSLs, low code and now no code, let alone the developer who claims their integration is composed of complex microservices. Whilst proponents of the various technologies argue over the pros and cons of each, one aspect is clear - integration is key to development, regardless of how you get there. Add to this various users such citizen and adhoc developers and cloud native requirements and this space gets very confusing very fast.

This talk is a Solution Architect's take on democratizing this complex area. Having worked with teams dealing with over 1500+ integration projects over the past decade, we look at the various types of integration projects and challenges teams have faced. We pick examples from startups and SMEs to large fortune 500 enterprises and look at successful projects as well as failed projects. Maybe there isn't a one size fit all solution to integration, even within a single organization. We propose an approach that combines the best of all worlds which addresses multiple personas, so that everyone can use what they like. And whilst at it, arrive at the true objective they were looking for - Integration!
