What is System Integration?
System Integration is the technical process of combining different subsystems (hardware, software, protocols) into a unified functional whole – requiring both technical competence in protocols and APIs and domain knowledge of what the data means.
Technical Definition: The technical process of combining different subsystems (hardware, software, communication protocols) into a unified, functional whole. System integration requires both technical competence (protocols, APIs, data models) and domain knowledge (what does the data actually mean?).
Why it matters: System integration is the value-creating step that transforms isolated systems into an intelligent facility. Without integration, even the best individual systems cannot deliver their full potential.
HubMind’s view: We build integration architectures that are documented, maintainable and based on open standards. Integration is not a one-time project – it is a capability that grows and evolves with the facility over time.
