Why developers use Axway AMPLIFY – the ultimate integration platform

In the spirit of Halloween this week, here’s a nightmare scenario: Sales just promised one of your organization’s biggest clients that a new application with half a dozen added features will be ready in 6 weeks. The catch is that they never checked with you first to see if that was even doable.

The problem?

Development takes time, and building out these features, integrating the necessary components, and connecting it to legacy systems that still need to be supported would take at minimum a few months.

So what’s the solution?

Use a hybrid integration platform to handle the hard, time-consuming parts of API integration for you.

Much like how front-end frameworks such as React, Vue, and Svelte all speed up the development of SPAs, and tools like Photoshop and GIMP are leaps and bounds better than the days of MS Paint for image manipulation, AMPLIFY is the tool of choice for developers when it comes to integrating APIs and microservices into their applications.

For example, let’s say that one of the new requirements for your app is Slack integration. Starting from scratch, this would be a time-consuming process. With AMPLIFY, you simply:

1. Select it from the list of pre-built connectors:
   
2. Create a new Slack instance:
   
3. Sign in with Slack to confirm the new instance:
   
4. Test the integration by, for example, making a channels call:
5. Deploy your new connector:
   
6. Now you’re ready to add the new connector to your application!

Integrations that would otherwise take weeks to complete can now be accomplished in a matter of hours or days.

And that’s just one of the many ways AMPLIFY is making app development quicker and easier. Having a single place to see and manage all the integrations for your applications, the capability to reuse patterns across multiple apps, the ability to create and publish your own APIs, and the flexibility to work with everything from cloud-based to on-prem deployments, all add up to AMPLIFY turning those nightmare scenarios into a dream come true for developers.

As always, these features are absolutely free to try, so you can be sure AMPLIFY is the right integration tool for your project.
