In our previous article, we introduced the four architecture domains as well as the evolution of a sample enterprise architecture. In this article, we will look at an enterprise integration platform as a service (EiPaaS) reference architecture and highlight its key components.
Enterprise architecture is evolving daily, with organizations continually focusing on digital transformation initiatives and new technologies such as cloud and microservices. Integration is therefore becoming an increasingly vital part of enterprise architecture.
The growth in cloud computing and the need for enhanced integration have pushed organizations to accelerate their plans for digital transformation. In the process, application programming interfaces (APIs) and a number of related new technologies — such as API management and integration solutions, cloud native products, integration platform as a service (iPaaS) offerings, and low-code platforms — have become critical in order to participate in the API economy of the business world.
New open-source WSO2 API Manager release enables EDA deployments with industry-first full AsyncAPI spec support, streaming APIs and integrations, and webhook APIs; includes all WSO2 Enterprise Integrator functionality; and adds Service Catalog and API Revisioning.
ISO/IEC 27000 standards for information technology is a series of security techniques that can improve the overall information security of an organization. The standard defines requirements for your information security management system (ISMS). In short, if your organization is compliant with ISO 27000, your personal data and business sensitive data are in safe hands.
Here are a few information security controls that you can implement with WSO2 Identity Server to protect personal data and for overall information security risk management.

WSO2 API Manager, the leading open-source hybrid API management platform, released the latest version recently; the new iteration comes with a number of powerful new features and product improvements. This article does not examine these new additions, but instead focuses on the architectural enhancements.
A monolithic architecture is the traditional unified model for the design of enterprise software. Monolithic systems act as a composed system and the software components are interconnected and interdependent i.e. components are tightly coupled. In such an architecture, it is difficult to add new components or perform updates, which are often part of an enterprise system’s growth. Even a minor upgrade results in a number of components being updated.
As a leader in the API management industry, WSO2 API Manager now comes with features to facilitate modern business needs. This article provides an overview of the new features and improvements.
