Workday Continues to Simplify Integration; Enables Customers and Partners to Build, Deploy, Run, and Manage Complex Integrations in the Workday Cloud
PLEASANTON, CALIF. — March 28, 2011 — To reduce cost and complexity typically associated with application integration, Workday, Inc. today announces it has opened the Workday Integration Cloud Platform to customers and partners. Using a proven set of tools, customers and partners can now build, deploy, run, and manage custom integrations for the numerous systems and applications that connect to and from Workday.
The Workday Integration Cloud is already operating at scale, with more than 100,000 integrations executed by customers and partners in the first quarter of 2011 alone. Workday is the leader in SaaS-based enterprise solutions for global human resources, payroll, and financial management.
“Businesses like ours require far more than APIs to simplify and improve enterprise integration. Workday recognizes this and has taken a leadership position by providing customers with critical access to its core technology,” said Paul Lones, senior vice president, Information Technology at Fairchild Semiconductor. “Workday’s Integration Cloud Platform played a major role in our decision to replace our on-premise system with Workday software-as-a-service. Since Workday opened its platform, we have already successfully built 28 custom integrations to and from Workday, and have the capability to maintain these or create additional integrations as our ecosystem evolves.”
“Today’s enterprise applications rarely live in isolation. Although integration is fundamental to enterprise and business applications, it is also the greatest deployment challenge for IT,” said Aneel Bhusri, Workday co-founder and CEO. “By enabling our customers and partners to self build, deploy, run, and manage integrations in the Workday Cloud, we believe we solve more of the integration problem than any other SaaS application vendor. A key investment area, Workday will continue to reduce the cost and complexity traditionally associated with application integration for our customers.”
