Ignoring its potential is no longer an option.We are witnessing a significant evolution in integration technologies to cater to these requirements. With Gen AI going mainstream and agentic AI on the horizon, the convergence of AI and integration marks a new chapter in software engineering. Our focus for this point of view is on how AI—especially Gen AI—will reshape integration across the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), from design and development to deployment and operations.This convergence offers a powerful opportunity to create software systems that are more efficient, insightful, and adaptable. AI-assisted integration doesn’t just automate processes - it elevates how integration teams operate, delivering meaningful transformation across the entire software engineering value chain. To remain competitive and future-ready, organizations must embrace this shift and craft a strong AI-powered integration strategy. Those who master AI-assisted integration will position themselves for sustainable growth and long-term success.Our previous publication, Orchestrating Excellence with Business APIs and Application Integration1, explored how staying ahead of technological change—whether through cloud, big data, mobile, IoT, or AI—enables a seamless information flow across applications, partners, and devices. A strategic approach to integration is central to that vision.Industry data backs this up. According to Gartner®2 “by 2028, 75% of spend will be on software with generative AI (Gen AI) functionality, as emerging use cases unlock new efficiencies and capabilities in software solutions.” Capgemini’s own report, Turbocharging Software with Gen AI3, found that 80% of organizations increased their Gen AI investments in the past year. Though adoption is still maturing, it’s expected that by 2026, over 80% of software professionals will be leveraging Gen AI in their work. Before diving deeper into the discussion, it’s vital to emphasize the importance of a robust, modernized integration strategy. Research consistently shows a direct link between such a strategy and business performance. In Forrester’s Developer Survey 20234, nearly twice as many respondents with a defined API strategy reported year-over-year revenue growth compared to those without one. Conversely, organizations lacking an integration strategy were almost twice as likely to report stagnant or declining revenue.The message is clear: AI-powered integration is not just a technical shift—it’s a strategic imperative. Now is the time to build that foun
