The data integration tools market is seeing renewed momentum driven by urgent requirements for hybrid/multicloud data management, augmented data integration and data fabric designs.
Gartner defines data integration as a discipline comprising the practices, architectural techniques and tools that allow organizations to ingest, transform, combine and provision data across the spectrum of data types. This integration takes place in the enterprise and beyond — across partners as well as third-party data sources and use cases — to meet the data consumption requirements of all applications and business processes. This is inclusive of any technology that supports data integration requirements regardless of current market nomenclature.
