Application Integration Global Market Report 2024

The application integration market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $15.96 billion in 2023 to $19.43 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.7%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as increased awareness and early diagnosis, collaboration between healthcare stakeholders, a growing prevalence of autoimmune disorders, government support for rare diseases, and improvements in patient education.

The application integration market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $41.84 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to continued research in immunology, personalized medicine approaches, global health initiatives for autoimmune diseases, expansion of rare disease treatment programs, patient advocacy and support. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in targeted therapies, personalized medicine approaches, growing research on novel drug classes, emphasis on early diagnosis and intervention, collaborative research and clinical trials.

The anticipated growth in the application integration market is driven by the expanding attack surface for cyber threats. Cyber threats involve malicious activities targeting computer systems, networks, devices, or data with the aim of compromising integrity, confidentiality, or availability. Application integration plays a crucial role in exchanging data and information between security tools, systems, and applications, enhancing the identification of cybersecurity threats. For example, in November 2022, the Australian Cyber Security Centre reported a significant increase in cybercrime reports, reaching over 76,000, reflecting a nearly 13% rise from the previous year. This underlines the critical role of application integration in addressing the growing challenge of cyber threats.

The growth of the application integration market is further fueled by the increasing adoption of cloud technology. Cloud technology involves the use of remote servers to store and manage data, run applications, and deliver services over the Internet. It facilitates application integration by providing scalable and centralized resources, fostering seamless connectivity, data sharing, and efficient communication among diverse software applications. A report from December 2023 by Eurostat, an intergovernmental organization based in Luxembourg, revealed that in the EU, 45.2% of enterprises adopted cloud computing services, marking a 4.2% increase from 2021 to 2023. The widespread adoption of cloud services across businesses of varying sizes is a driving force behind the growth of the application integration market.

A major challenge hindering the growth of the application integration market is the high initial investment required. Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) demands resources for technology infrastructure, software, custom development, data transformation, security, monitoring, training, and ongoing maintenance. The substantial initial investment can create barriers for smaller businesses, impose budget constraints, prolong return on investment (ROI) periods, divert resources, increase perceived risks, influence vendor choices, and favor simpler off-the-shelf alternatives. As per New York University, the initial implementation expenses for Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) range from $500,000 to $2 million, highlighting the significant financial commitment required.

Major companies in the application integration market are actively innovating with new technologies. For instance, the introduction of the Qristal software suite by Quantum Brilliance, an Australia-based quantum computing hardware company, exemplifies efforts to explore the utility of quantum computing in practical applications. Launched in March 2023, the Qristal software suite offers complete C++ and CUDA feature integration, enabling researchers and developers to test and create high-performance software. This innovation positions Quantum Brilliance as a significant player in the expanding quantum computing industry.

In June 2023, Silver Lake, a US-based private equity firm, acquired Qualtrics for $12.5 billion. This strategic move aims to strengthen the corporate cloud platform and transform various business processes. The acquisition positions Qualtrics, a provider of experience platform integrations, APIs, and connections, as an independent, privately owned business with the potential for category-defining innovation and effective growth at scale.

Application integration involves the connection of different software applications and systems within an organization to function cohesively as a coordinated whole. The primary objective of application integration is to facilitate seamless collaboration among disparate systems, enabling them to share data and automate processes.

The main types of integrations in application integration include point-to-point integration, enterprise application integration, enterprise service bus, integration platform as a service, and hybrid integration. Point-to-point integration is a method of directly connecting two or more software applications or systems to exchange data or messages. This approach utilizes various technologies such as middleware solutions, application programming interface management, and integration platform as a service (IPAAS). It provides platforms and services for consumer relationship management, enterprise resource planning, human resource management systems, supply chain management, business intelligence, electronic health record management, and other applications. These applications cater to various verticals including banking, financial services, and insurance, retail and e-commerce, manufacturing, healthcare and life sciences, energy and utilities, automotive, transportation and logistics, government and public sector, among others.
