When an existing software solution needs to integrate with another application, we call that a ‘Connected Service.’ The goal is to pull in the power of existing processes to create more efficient business operations. While this might be part of your existing business logic, it is most often an add-on to enhance your processes through outside platforms. For example, an eCommerce system might tie into a supplier’s inventory management software to make order fulfillment faster and keep inventory costs down, thereby benefiting both sides of the equation.

Typically, your existing software applications can be enhanced or expanded directly or by bolting on other modules. If the solutions are pulling data from the same data source, then integration is not required. But when one application needs another application’s data, that is when a custom, connected service is required.
