Integrating with the Cloud: IBM Acquires Cast Iron Systems
Enterprise Management Associates, May 2010, Pages: 3
IBM recently announced the acquisition of Cast Iron Systems, an application integration vendor, for an undisclosed sum. The acquired company is a leader in its respective space and well positioned with a product line spanning physical and virtual appliances, as well as the cloud. Cast Iron Systems was one of the first to market with connectors for cloud-based solutions such as Salesforce.com and RightNow.com. This is high-demand functionality, since many IT organizations are seeking to integrate cloud-based services with a variety of enterprise applications.
EMA sees this as a win for IBM and one that will provide additional traction in the Small to Medium-sized Business (SMB) and enterprise cloud markets. However, companies should be aware that this product does not replace, but rather supplements, traditional Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) products.
