SAP Named a Leader Again in the Gartner Magic Quadrant 2026 for iPaaS Solutions

SAP has been recognized for the sixth consecutive time as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) 2026. According to the company, this recognition reflects its continued investments in a modern, scalable, and AI-ready integration platform that meets the needs of organizations operating in increasingly complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

SAP Integration Suite as the Foundation for Integration

The main product behind this recognition is SAP Integration Suite, part of the SAP Business Technology Platform. The solution brings together key capabilities such as:

• API management
• event-driven architecture
• business process integration
• AI-assisted development
  
  

The platform enables organizations to connect distributed systems, manage workflows, and maintain security across hybrid and multi-cloud environments—whether they use SAP solutions or a mix of different third-party applications.

By leveraging metadata, events, and APIs, SAP Integration Suite provides a foundation for deploying AI agents and automated business processes. This architecture is used by companies in industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and retail, where both performance and regulatory compliance are critical.

New AI Capabilities and Expanded Features

Over the past year, SAP has expanded the platform with new AI functionalities that support faster deployment and improved operational efficiency. These include:

• anomaly detection
• script optimization
• traffic forecasting
• automatic generation of integration processes
  
  

Combined with more than 4,000 prebuilt integration flows and over 250 connectors, the platform reduces manual effort and accelerates the deployment of new solutions.

SAP Integration Suite is used across more than 40 data centers worldwide, enabling local data processing and supporting data sovereignty requirements.

Supporting the Adoption of Agentic AI

The solution is already used by various international companies to implement AI-driven processes and optimize operations.

Gebr. Heinemann has modernized its global sales platform using SAP Integration Suite and advanced event mesh, enabling the processing of 300,000 price change events within 30 minutes without performance degradation.

Shimano Europe uses the platform to accelerate go-to-market processes by optimizing system integrations and improving customer experience through a more flexible infrastructure.

Siemens AG relies on SAP Integration Suite to standardize global reporting processes and comply with various regulatory requirements. By unifying integrations and supporting country-specific tax protocols, the company improves both efficiency and consistency in its reporting.

Focus on the Future

SAP plans to continue developing Integration Suite with deeper AI integration, expanded business content, more industry-specific solutions, and an improved developer experience.

The goal is to enable organizations to automate a larger portion of their processes, accelerate innovation, and scale their business in a dynamic digital environment.
