What is Workday Integration Cloud?

Workday’s Integration Cloud Platform is a complete Integration Platformas-a–Service (iPaaS) for building,
deploying, and managing integrations to and from Workday. It provides a proven, enterprise-class
platform that consists of an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) embedded as part of the Workday platform with
associated tools directly within the Workday UI for managing and monitoring integrations. The Workday
Integration Cloud also provides pre-built and delivered connections to non-Workday systems, as well as
tools for developing custom integrations. All integrations are deployed to and run on Workday without the
need for any on-premise middleware.
What is Integration Cloud Connect?
Integration Cloud Connect represents a portfolio of integration products designed to complement Workday
core business applications by providing pre-built connections to third-party applications and services.
Each integration is deployed in the Workday Cloud, which, in turn, gives you all the benefits of a fully
hosted and managed application. Customers can enjoy integration solutions that are versioned and
stable, as well as kept up to date with the latest infrastructure, tooling, application changes, and vendor
changes (where applicable). Integration Cloud Connect provides two types of packaged content:
connectors and toolkits. In each case, the content provided is managed, maintained, and supported by
Workday.
Workday API using your own middleware technology; MuleSoft, Boomi, TIBCO, or Oracle Fusion
Middleware is just a few of the middleware tools used by Workday customers.
However, there are several major advantages to using the Workday Integration Cloud:
-Integrations surface naturally inside the Workday user interface. You can view the integrations, launch
them, schedule them, secure them, include them in Workday business processes, configure notifications
around them, and audit and log them— all from within the Workday user experience.
-Both packaged and custom integrations run on Workday software and hardware infrastructure in our data
centers. You do not need to license or use any on-premise integration middleware platform, which can
greatly simplify the deployment and management of integrations especially when the majority of the
integrations are connecting to Workday
-Finally Workday’s integration tools are also highly optimized for efficiently building integrations to and
from Workday. Purpose-built packaged components handle much of the plumbing aspects of integration-
building, freeing you to focus on the critical business logic.
Overall, Workday’s packaged integrations and tools are widely proven in a variety of demanding situations
and
offer a lower-cost, lower-risk path to delivering needed integrations in support of your deployment.

Why Use Workday for Integration?


Connectors are pre-built integrations that are designed, implemented, and supported by Workday. They
drastically reduce the implementation time required to complete an end-to-end integration by providing the
processing logic, data transformation, and error handling details required to integrate third-party party
systems such as Kronos, ADP, Ceridian, Salesforce, Cybersource, Cornerstone, and others. All
connectors are configurable to accommodate differences in customer situations (such as customizations
of your third-party system) and run in the Workday Cloud, releasing you from the burden of having to
maintain a separate integration infrastructure.
How to simplify integration in cloud?
Until now, the best option offered by traditional ERP vendors to support integration to their solutions was a
low-level API. With the emergence of Software-asa-Service (SaaS) as a delivery model for enterprise
solutions, innovative vendors such as Workday are providing new approaches that simplify the creation,
deployment, and maintenance of integrations. Just as Workday simplifies the deployment, management,
and upgrades associated with enterprise applications through a SaaS-based delivery model, Workday
also simplifies application integration by moving the development, deployment, and management of
integrations to the Workday Integration Cloud.
When to Use Workday Studio?
Workday Studio provides a comprehensive set of capabilities for the identification, development, and
management of integration tasks. Enterprises that use Workday Studio typically have one or more of the
following requirements:
-Multiple data sources and/or delivery requirements
-Scalable and efficient processing of large data sets (up to tens of gigabytes)
-Complex looping or branching logic based on dynamic data or external variables • Sophisticated change
detection requirements
-Complex error handling scenarios and corresponding need to react differently to error conditions • Need
for rigorous source code control, unit testing, debugging, logging, and other formal development
disciplines
-Need to extend with custom capabilities implemented in Java, Spring, or a third-party service.
What Is a Cloud Connect Package?
Workday provides a collection of connectors for speeding integration implementation with third-party
systems. Each Cloud Connect package contains a collection of connectors for orchestrating an end-to-
end integration with the processing logic and error handling required on the Workday side of the
integration. In addition, connectors provide change detection, rule-based data mapping, field validation,
and formatting. These Cloud Connect packages include connectors to known and unknown third-party
systems or standards. For the cases where the integrated third-party system is unknown, customers are
responsible for completing the integration by implementing the necessary logic (it may require formatting
and possibly transformations) to tie it to the third-party system they are looking to integrate with Workday.
What are Powerful Integration Tools?
Powerful integration tools simplify custom integrations for both business managers and IT. Workday offers
tooling for common and simple integration scenarios as well as the complex ones that customers face
today. These two offerings include Enterprise Interface Builder and Workday Studio
What are the Key Benefits of Workday Integration?
-Build, launch, monitor, and manage Workday-related integrations directly within the Workday UI
-Leverage a powerful and productive development environment optimized for building sophisticated and
highly customizable integrations
-Deploy all integrations to the Workday Cloud, powered by a proven enterprise-class integration platform
-Eliminate the need to own or manage any on-premise integration middleware or servers.
What are the Management and Monitoring in workday integration?
Within the Workday UI, you can manage and monitor integrations built with EIB and Studio. Both business
users and IT developers can:
-Launch and schedule integrations
-View and manage past, running, and scheduled integrations
-Create and maintain email notifications based on integration events, such as when integrations launch,
complete, or fail
-Configure integration security to control which users can launch, build, and view integrations and their
data
Workday’s integration tools are widely proven in a variety of demanding situations and offer a lower-cost,
lower-risk path to delivering needed integrations in support of your specific business needs.
What is a Complete Integration Platform-as-a-Service?
The Workday Integration Cloud provides a flexible platform for easily integrating with Workday. Workday
provides hundreds of web services for seamlessly integrating with Workday, giving organizations the
choice to build their own integrations using Workday’s public web service API’s. Alternatively, Workday
offers a suite of self-service integration tools, complete with pre-built integrations, which enable both
business users and IT developers to build, configure, test, and deploy custom integrations.
