ENTERPRISE INTEGRATION_
One integration backbone — not a maze of silo glue
Parallaxis productizes an integration backbone across Salesforce, SAP, Kafka, and legacy systems of record: map → design → integrate → govern → operate. Same seams, real ownership, operate after integrate — not point-to-point spaghetti.
Every engagement builds an integration backbone on integration tech enterprises already hire for. Tap the stages on the right.
Integration backbone_
Map through operate — ERP, CRM, and legacy seams on Salesforce, SAP, Kafka, and your backbone. Tap a stage.
Map_
Stage 01 / 05
Chart systems before you glue them
Systems of record, owners, and coupling — so the backbone starts from truth, not tribal Visio.

02 · SILOS VS BACKBONE_
Same enterprise. Two very different paths.
Toggle Silo theater vs integration backbone — watch where integration dies or completes.
Same constraint_
“Finance and sales both need the same customer — and each built a private overnight sync.”

Outcome_
Silo glue
Point-to-point scripts, CSV drops, and hope. Every new system adds another fragile bridge.
03 · COUPLING PRESSURE_
Confidence dies when coupling is hoped
Toggle coupling pressures — watch the confidence score and how fragile the enterprise becomes.

Outcome_
Tightening the backbone
Some adapters exist — still too much tribal glue between silos.
04 · SYSTEM × SEAM_
Probe the cell before you couple
Pick a system and seam gate — see blast if it fails and which controls belong on the backbone.

Duplicate customers multiply — revenue and support disagree.
Controls on the backbone_
- Canonical ID map
- Match rules
- Merge policy
Operator note_
Identity is a backbone concern — not a spreadsheet afterthought.
CAPABILITY_
How we use the stack — not slideware logos
Each mark is a capability we deliver: owned seams into Salesforce and SAP, event paths on Kafka, and operate loops after integrate.
Salesforce bridges
Owned sync paths and identity maps — not private Apex glue that only one admin understands.
SAP adapters
Controlled change windows and reconciliation so ERP truth does not become spreadsheet truth.
Apache Kafka
Enterprise event paths with schemas, ACLs, and DLQ ownership across domains.
RabbitMQ
Reliable queues for domain handoffs when Kafka is not the backbone of record.
OpenAPI seams
Versioned HTTP seams on the backbone so adapters do not invent private dialects.
GitHub change control
Adapter and schema PRs with required reviews — backbone change is a gated path.
05 · BACKBONE HANDOVER_
What an integration backbone engagement leaves behind
Open a chapter — map through operate. Vocabulary the owning team runs next.
Backbone handover chapters_
5 chapters- System inventory
- Owner map
- Coupling hotspots
In scope_
- Integration backbone: map → design → integrate → govern → operate
- ERP/CRM/legacy seam productization
- Backbone handoff so the owning team can run seams
Out of scope_
- Single API/event contract productization (see API Integration)
- Analytics sync layers without enterprise ownership (see Data Integration)
- Cloud landing zones without an integration constraint (see Cloud Engineering)
FIT_
Is Enterprise Integration the right next step?
Self-qualify — we work best when silos, systems of record, and coupling are the constraint.
Good fit_
- ERP/CRM/legacy need a coherent integration backbone — not more private overnight syncs
- Identity and “who is truth” are already a weekly fight
- Someone will own the backbone after handoff — not a one-off adapter spike
Not yet_
- You mainly need owned REST/GraphQL/event contracts (see API Integration)
- The primary pain is warehouse pipelines (see Data Engineering)
- Accounts and landing zones are still fragile (see Cloud Engineering)
NEXT STEP_
Ready to put an integration backbone under the silos?
Map your systems — or talk through the overnight sync only one admin can restart. We will confirm coupling hotspots, identity gaps, governance, and whether API Integration should land first on a surface.
Common questions
Our Enterprise Integration engagements run map → design → integrate → govern → operate, productizing seams across systems of record with an operate handoff — not silo glue.
