Integrate and interface your IBM i applications and data

When you roll out a new CRM, financial management platform, or cloud service, you don’t have to throw away years of custom business rules. Integrate and interface your IBM i applications and data with these new systems instead—systems integration makes it possible.

Don’t replace your IBM i applications—connect them

Some vendors will tell you that adopting a new business system means completely replacing your IBM i applications. But those applications represent years of hard-won custom rules. A much better strategy is to integrate and interface them with your new systems—preserving what works while opening it to the rest of your enterprise.

What’s Included

Flexible integration, built around your systems

Loosely coupled integrations

Flexible, loosely coupled connections that let your applications evolve independently—without brittle point-to-point dependencies.

Interface via existing APIs

Enable your IBM i applications to interface with non–IBM i applications through existing API layers, so new systems and legacy logic work as one.

Powered by NPM

Utilize NPM (Node Package Manager) for faster, easier integration—tapping a proven ecosystem instead of building everything from scratch.

Hundreds of thousands of packages

NPM is an online repository of open-source Node.js projects—several hundred thousand available for immediate use—dramatically reducing the time spent writing new code.

Our Approach

How systems integration works

  1. Map your systems and data

    We start by understanding the IBM i applications, data, and business rules you rely on—and the new systems you want them to work with.

  2. Design loosely coupled interfaces

    We define flexible integration points that connect IBM i to your CRM, financial, and cloud platforms through existing API layers.

  3. Build with the Node.js ecosystem

    We leverage NPM and open-source Node.js packages to accelerate development, so integrations are delivered faster and with less custom code.

  4. Connect, test, and extend

    Your IBM i applications and data flow seamlessly between systems—ready to scale as you add new platforms and services.

Outcomes

Why integrate instead of replace

  • Preserve years of custom business rules built into your IBM i applications
  • Connect IBM i to new CRM, financial management, and cloud systems
  • Deliver integrations faster by reusing the open-source Node.js ecosystem
  • Keep systems flexible with loosely coupled, API-driven interfaces
  • Avoid the cost and risk of ripping out and replacing proven applications

This isn’t modernization – it’s futurization. Your IBM i investment becomes more valuable, not obsolete.
