Summary

Embedded iPaaS systems are designed to simplify the integration of products with external APIs by offering low-code/no-code solutions, but they often fall short in practice, primarily requiring engineers for effective implementation. These systems face limitations such as insufficient API coverage and a suboptimal developer experience. The text explores three alternatives to embedded iPaaS: building integrations in-house, using closed unified APIs, and employing open unified APIs. Building in-house offers complete control and customization but demands significant engineering resources and maintenance. Closed unified APIs simplify integration across multiple APIs but lack flexibility and customization. Open unified APIs, like Nango, combine the benefits of unified access with the ability to customize and extend integrations, though some understanding of external APIs is still necessary. The document suggests these alternatives offer more control, customization, and potentially reduced maintenance compared to embedded iPaaS, depending on the specific needs and resources of a company.
