Streamlining Downstream and External Application Integration and Security – Azure Integration Service

Streamlining Integration and Security: Unified Gateway for Downstream and External apps

Implemented a centralized Azure-based integration gateway to enhance interoperability, strengthen security, and ensure resilient, seamless data communication across applications and systems.

Problem Statement
  • Lack of a centralized integration gateway resulted in fragmented systems and operational inefficiencies.
  • Inconsistent security policies and limited data visibility posed compliance and data breach risks.
  • High integration costs due to custom application-level transformations reduced IT agility and scalability.
Solution Design
  • Implemented a centralized integration gateway using Azure Integration Services to unify communication between downstream applications and external systems, enhancing interoperability.
  • Leveraged Azure Functions and Logic Apps for efficient data transformation and sensitive data filtering.
  • Strengthened security with Azure Managed Identity and OAuth 2.0 for seamless, managed authentication across services.
  • Integrated Azure Storage Queues to enable resilient offline communication, ensuring uninterrupted data transfers.
  • Centralized config and secrets management using Azure App Configuration and Key Vault, enhancing control and security compliance.
Business Impact
  • 35% annual reduction in IT costs through Azure-based integration solutions.
  • Accelerated time-to-market for new products and services by approximately 50%, enhancing business agility and competitiveness.
  • Ensured strong compliance with client security and process standards, significantly reducing non-compliance risks.
