Backend Data Integration with OutSystems

For organisations that need to modernise their applications and workflows, integrating data from existing systems into new software can be a major roadblock.

Whether it's established legacy data sources which can’t be changed or switched off, or data needing to be integrated from various sources, in various formats - all of this can make data integration a challenge for businesses.

Fortunately, low-code platforms like OutSystems can make connecting to, and using, back-end data simpler.
