Frequently asked questions about application integration support

What is application integration support?

Application integration support keeps your connected systems working together effectively long after the initial build. It covers monitoring, troubleshooting, and updates, helping integrations continue to perform as your platforms, data, and business requirements change.

How does application integration support differ from application integration implementation?

Implementation designs and builds the connections between your systems. Integration support helps maintain those connections, resolves issues, and adjusts integrations as your systems and business requirements evolve.

What's the difference between a point-to-point integration and a middleware-based integration?

A point-to-point integration links two systems directly. It can be a good fit for straightforward, limited-scope integration needs. A middleware-based integration routes data through a central platform, which can provide greater flexibility as your integration ecosystem grows. The right fit depends on your existing technology environment, integration complexity, and future needs.

Why do application integrations break or need ongoing support?

A platform update, a change to a data field or schema, or a shifted business process can affect how an integration performs. Ongoing support helps identify and resolve these changes before they create larger data or business process issues.

Does integration support include Workday Extend or Workday Orchestrate?

It can. Depending on the scope of support, this may include integrations and applications built using Workday Extend or Workday Orchestrate, as well as connections between Workday and third-party systems.

What should I look for in an integration support partner?

Look for a partner with:
  • Deep experience across the specific platforms you run
  • A clear understanding of how those systems support your business goals
  • The technical range to recommend the right approach for your situation
  • A proactive approach to monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement

How does integration support fit into a broader Application Managed Services engagement?

Integration support can run alongside configuration support, release management, and reporting support as part of one engagement. Through our Continuous Innovation Services (CIS), an evolution of traditional AMS, that support goes beyond keeping systems running. Integration issues get caught during regular system care, and your connected systems keep improving as your business grows.

What integration challenges come up for higher education, government, and nonprofit organizations?

These organizations may operate a mix of legacy and modern systems while navigating complex approval processes, data governance requirements, and evolving business needs. Integration support can help maintain reliable connections across that mix of systems as those needs evolve.

How much does ongoing application integration support cost?

Cost depends on how many integrations you're maintaining, how complex each one is, and the level of monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimization required. The support model may also vary based on whether you need ongoing managed support or help with specific integrations and changes.

What happens if we skip dedicated integration support after go-live?

Without ongoing support, issues like a failed data sync or an outdated field mapping may not be identified immediately and can contribute to inaccurate reporting, duplicate records, or unreliable data downstream. Ongoing integration support helps identify and resolve issues while keeping connections aligned with changes across your systems and business processes.
