This IDC PeerScape highlights best practices provided in the IDC MarketScape for worldwide business-to-business middleware from December 2024. It highlights the collective learnings to provide best practices to companies looking to add or replace B2B technologies.According to Shari Lava, senior director, AI and Automation, “B2B middleware is a technology that has been around for ages, but that doesn’t mean companies should rely on legacy tools to deliver these capabilities. Modern B2B capabilities are critical for unlocking the next level of automation that goes beyond a company’s four walls.”
