Everyone is in theSoftware Business And business leaders will no longer tolerate data being scattered among application silos.

Software has dominated the world of business for many years now. It’s become such an integral part of the business world that 2014 saw a number of high-profile CEOs and notable industry analysts proclaim “every business is in the software business.”

So what does that mean? It means that business systems and corporate data management is no longer just an IT problem, but squarely on the list of top priorities for executive teams. In fact, a recent Forrester Research Report even argues that corporate software assets will be more valuable to the business than financials. The reason? Software innovation and efficiencies are the greatest opportunities for financial gains.

For software vendors this is great news- your services are more valuable to your customers than ever before – but it is also a call to action. Businesses can no longer survive with software operating in a silo. They need their business systems to communicate across the enterprise and deliver meaningful insights to a variety of stakeholders.

Unfortunately, finding a consistent cost- effective way to give business users access from any device and through one interface to critical data spread across

cloud applications and on-premise systems is one of the biggest challenges facing organizations today.

In a CIO Magazine article discussing the top trends for data in 2015, IT experts noted that deeper integration of disparate ERP and CRM applications with business intelligence for sound decision making is a paramount priority for businesses. CEO Jeremy Roche at FinancialForce, describes the challenge as an inevitable investment companies need to make in order to be competitive in business “rather than allow vital customer information to be scattered among various pieces of a business.”

The solution is iPaaS, Integration Platform as a Service.

Additional benefits of iPaaS include: • Eliminate costs and resource requirements of endpoint-to- endpoint integrations

• Support for a variety of connectivity protocols and data delivery methods allow businesses to rapidly expand integration offerings and increase market opportunities

• Enhance security and stability with 24/7 advanced monitoring and support.

• Reduce Time-to-Value with reusable integration templates

The iPaaS Value Proposition

"Software Companies don’t typically have the resources or the time to focus on how other business applications use their data or services. They are focused on developing their product. The iPaaS model allows organizations to decouple from the process. A partner builds their API, exposes the objects and functionality they want to share and we do the rest. We manage the integrations, handle functional changes, monitor systems and hardware - and ensure every partner in the ecosystem can scale to meet demand with 99.99% reliability. It would cost them a fortune to do it internally.“

–Tom STEmm, RyVIT CEo

APIs and Integrations

In order to meet these new requirements, software vendors and developers began establishing APIs. APIs expose existing data and business objects for other applications or devices to consume for endpoint-to-endpoint integration. There is a variety of integration types businesses must support to meet the needs of their customers, each with its unique set of challenges and complexities:- cloud-to-cloud, cloud-to-on-premises, on-premises-to-on-premises and B2B.

The scope of developing, monitoring and supporting a single integration is daunting for most organizations. Increasingly more customers are demanding integrations across the entire enterprise, to multiple systems, cloud applications and a variety of devices. For small and mid- sized software companies there simply isn’t the time or the resources to meet these needs. Most businesses are turning to integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) providers like Ryvit.

The Benefits of iPaaS

An Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) provides capabilities to enable subscribers or “tenants” to implement integration projects involving any combination of cloud and on-premises endpoints — data sources, applications, web services, APIs and processes. This is achieved by leveraging the iPaaS capabilities to develop, deploy, execute, manage and monitor integration flows linking multiple endpoints.

In simpler terms, it’s an ecosystem of applications and integrations. By forging a partner relationship with Ryvit, we facilitate the integration of your software or services into the ecosystem. Once that integration is established, you can quickly integrate with all other application or “tenants” within the ecosystem without having to build, monitor or maintain individual endpoint-to- endpoint integrations.

Ryvit Components

Ryvit Connector Many of today’s workhorse software packages are deployed on-premise or use a hybrid of cloud-based and on-premise deployments to leverage local computing power and ensure data security. For on- premise integrations, Ryvit deploys a small.NET based application we call Connector to send/receive data over an encrypted HTTPS connection with the Ryvit Application Platform.

Requirement: .NET Framework version 4.5.1 (allows for REST communications) must be installed along with the Anchor Application; Local database and application permissions; active internet connection.

Ryvit Configuration Manager The Ryvit Configurator acts as a data director during your implementation setup. Configurator displays the data from previously disparate, disconnected, silo data sources and uses a graphical user interface to map the integration intelligently between applications indicating the direction of the data flow on the Ryvit Application Platform.

Ryvit Integration Database & API To handle ETL and data mapping requirements, the Ryvit API collects all inbound data and compares it to the information currently in the integration database for that application, making changes or additions where necessary. This process essentially synchronizes the customer’s local application database with ours in the cloud.

Ryvit Data Processor Application This is the heart of the Ryvit platform. Our processing application allows us to validate, transform and supplement your data to fit integration needs. By abstracting this logic layer from API functionality, partners can continue to develop product features independently of systems

integrations. As long as the underlying data structure doesn’t change, your integrations will continue to function as expected.

Ryvit Performance Monitoring Ryvit integrations are built with a complete suite of logging, self-diagnosing and reporting features allowing us to continuously monitor the health and performance of individual integrations and executions. The Ryvit team will bring this monitoring functionality directly to our partners allowing you to monitor the health and performance of your integrations from any device in real time.

Underlying computing resources and cloud infrastructure is monitored around-the-clock with guaranteed 99.99% availability.'

Ryvit Business Intelligence (BI) One of the ways Ryvit is different than other platforms is in our custom designed integrations. Because we run mirrored databases on integration objects and have the native capabilities to push and pull data from multiple applications, we can provide partners with insights across the enterprise. This opens up the opportunities for your business to provide meaningful metrics to executive teams, sales and marketing personnel, and even customers.

For example, a logistics application integrates with GPS tracking to see real-time location data, but the accounting team wants to know fuel consumption rates based on weight to ensure costs align with pricing nationwide. Ryvit Professional Services and our BI Engine can get you to that level of detail – delivering KPIs and data-driven insights to make your business more efficient and effective. Underlying computing resources and cloud infrastructure is monitored around-the-clock with guaranteed 99.99% availability.
