Global Enterprise Application Integration Market 2016-2020

Market overview of the EAI market

Technavio’s research analyst predicts the global enterprise application integration (EAI) market to grow steadily at a CAGR of around 11% during the forecast period. The need to improve business process efficiency is a key growth driver for this market. The use of multiple systems in a business environment has increased the complexities for sharing data or business rules and make business decisions. A lack of communication among the various systems leads to inefficiencies and can result in storing of identical data in multiple locations eating up space, or bring about problems in establishing automation. EAI involves linking applications within a single common system together to simplify business processes. Information can be shared on each level of the organization and helps avoid sweeping changes to the existing data structures.

The rapid adoption of cloud-based EAI is anticipated to boost the market growth in the coming years. Cloud-based EAI is an enterprise-class software that is easy to use and quick to implement. For instance, MuleSoft's iON is the first fully functional cloud application integration suite and follows the pricing model of SaaS.

Segmentation by deployment type and analysis of the EAI market

• On-premise
• Cloud

The on-premise segment dominated the market during 2015 with a market share of above 89% and is expected to retain its market leadership until the end of 2020. This is attributed to the high demand for integration platform as a service (IPaaS) due to its cost-efficient nature and availability of customized solutions.

• Americas
• APAC
• EMEA

The Americas accounted for 55% of the market share during 2015 and is anticipated to maintain its market dominance until the end of the forecast period.
