Integration Marketplace vs Embedded Integration Marketplace
Blog post from Prismatic
Integration marketplaces are becoming a best practice for B2B SaaS companies, offering a solution for managing the increasing demand for software integrations. However, building such a marketplace in-house is often too costly and resource-intensive for many companies. An embedded integration marketplace, procured from a third party, provides a cost-effective alternative that seamlessly integrates into a company's application, offering functionality that appears native to the users. This solution allows developers to focus on core products while providing customers with a comprehensive integration experience, including tools for configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. Embedded integration marketplaces are often part of an embedded Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS), which offers a range of features, including low-code integration design, custom workflow building, and robust support tools, all underpinned by cloud-native infrastructure to ensure scalability and security.
