INTEGRATION CLOUD PLATFORM

Workday’s Integration Cloud Platform is a proven, enterprise-class Integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) for building, deploying, and managing integrations to and from Workday. All integrations are deployed to, and run in, the Workday Cloud without the need for any on-premise middleware. Workday also provides management and monitoring services embedded in the Workday UI.

Integration Tools for Both IT and Business

Workday offers a suite of self-service integration tools that enable both business users and IT developers to build, configure, test, and deploy custom integrations.

• Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB)
  The Workday Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB) tool provides an easy-to-use graphical and guided interface to define inbound and outbound integrations without requiring any programming. Used by the majority of Workday customers, the EIB can be used by both business and IT users to address a variety of integration needs.
• Workday Studio
  Workday Studio is a powerful development tool that enables customers and partners to build sophisticated and highly customizable integrations to and from Workday. Aimed at skilled developers, Workday Studio offers a rich, graphical development environment in which a user can drag and drop a variety of re-usable components that handle the plumbing aspects of integration-building, freeing you to focus on critical business logic.

Enterprise-Class ESB Grid

Powering all of Workday’s integration capabilities is a best-of-breed Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) architecture that enables Workday’s integrations to scale, interconnect, and support the latest industry standards, protocols, and formats. Workday’s ESB is a core component of the Workday Integration Cloud and provides universal and open standards-based connectivity for virtually all types of business applications, information, and processes.

Management & Monitoring

Within the Workday UI, you can manage and monitor integrations built with EIB and Studio. Both business users and IT developers can:

• Launch and schedule integrations
• View and manage past, running, and scheduled integrations
• Create and maintain email notifications based on integration events, such as when integrations launch, complete, or fail
• Configure integration security to control which users can launch, build, and view integrations and their data

Workday’s integration cloud platform tools are widely proven in a variety of demanding situations and offer a lower-cost, lower-risk path to delivering Workday integrations in support of your specific business needs.
