DreamFactory and Built.io Automate the Full Capabilities of Data Connectivity and Cloud Integration for Citizen Users

CAMPBELL, Calif. and SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DreamFactory and Built.io today announced a partnership that provides end-to-end automation of business workflows in the cloud. The unique "democratization" of data and integration platform-as-a-service (iPaaS) empowers citizen developers and less-technical, line-of-business users to take charge of streamlining their business processes in a low code and high productivity environment.

Integration platforms and enterprise data connectivity historically have been inaccessible as a productivity tool for knowledge workers, requiring lengthy requisition cycles with IT to automate even simple business workflows. Previously, citizen users and departmental heads had no easy way to digitize their day-to-day workflows. Built.io Flowtm provides a low code, drag-and-drop platform in a self-service cloud, designed specifically to be used by less technical users who want to automate business processes. DreamFactory pioneered the auto-generation of integration APIs and edge gateways to securely externalize any data tier for digital transformation. Used together, DreamFactory's enterprise gateway extends Built.io Flow's visual process composer to include enterprise databases behind the firewall. 

Highlights of the partnership include the ability to:

• Visually compose cloud workflows by integrating apps, data and processes
• Auto-generate REST APIs with firewall-friendly edge gateways for any enterprise database, prepackaged as Built.io visual components
• Access hundreds of connector services and "out-of-the-box" workflows for instant productivity and integration
• Develop and test in a developer portal to deliver modern cloud workloads and automate partner integration

"DreamFactory is often deployed on the edge of clouds as a multi-purpose gateway to externalize enterprise data for mobile and digital transformation initiatives," said Eric Rubin, cofounder of DreamFactory Software. "Our partnership with Built.io extends the utility of our data gateways to line of business workflow composers, opening up an entirely new consumer opportunity for our customers."

"Our customers use Built.io Flow for its low-code, visual drag-and-drop feature for automation of cloud application integration, enabling real time customer experiences," said Akash Sureka, General Manager of Built.io. "This partnership with DreamFactory solves a very complex problem, which is automating and providing a self-service, visual approach for integrating enterprise data to the cloud. This will bring immense power to business users working in areas like sales, marketing, customer service, collaboration, data migration, industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and smart cities enabling new digital automation world for future."
