Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from the volume of paid integration workloads: active connectors, API call volumes and data pipelines licensed by enterprise and mid-market buyers, multiplied by the realised per-connector or consumption-based prices vendors publish in pricing schedules. Deployment counts come from customer-count and net-revenue-retention figures disclosed by public integration-platform vendors, including Salesforce's own segment reporting for MuleSoft. The build is then checked against the aggregate subscription revenue those vendors report for their integration product lines. Where disclosed revenue implies a different average price per connector than the volume assumption produced, the volume or price assumption is corrected, not averaged against the top-down figure.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Primary interviews target integration architects, IT procurement leads and platform engineering managers at enterprise buyers, alongside channel partners and systems integrators who resell or implement integration platforms, and product and pricing leads at the vendors themselves. Regulatory and compliance officers are included where the deployment touches regulated data, particularly in banking and healthcare. Sampling weights toward North America and Western Europe, where public disclosure is richest and buyer budgets are largest, with a smaller supplementary sample in India and Southeast Asia to capture the faster-growing small and mid-sized enterprise segment, where pricing behaviour differs from the large-enterprise segment covered by vendor investor materials.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on integration-platform vendors' own 10-K and investor filings where public (Salesforce for MuleSoft, IBM, Oracle, SAP and Software AG), Gartner and Forrester vendor-comparison reports for feature and pricing benchmarks, and national statistical offices' software and IT-services trade classifications, including the US Census Bureau's NAICS 511210 software publishing data and Eurostat's ICT sector accounts, to anchor regional software spend. API management vendor developer-portal metrics and public case-study disclosures on connector counts supplement the pricing build where a vendor does not separately disclose integration-segment revenue.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast carries forward the shift from point-to-point custom integration toward platform-based integration as the primary driver, calibrated against the pace at which enterprise buyers report retiring custom middleware in vendor case studies. API management and event-driven integration are assumed to keep growing faster than batch data integration as application architectures continue moving toward microservices. Pricing is assumed to hold roughly flat in per-connector terms while consumption volumes rise, instead of assuming vendors raise list prices materially faster than inflation. The 2020-2021 pandemic-era jump in cloud migration spend is treated as a one-time acceleration and is not extrapolated forward as the underlying trend rate for the remainder of the forecast.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs are back-tested against the recorded 2020-2024 revenue growth of the publicly reporting vendors in the competitive set, checking that the implied market growth rate does not exceed what those vendors' own reported growth would allow given their share positions. Segment analysts reviewed the shift in share toward API management and away from B2B and EDI integration for consistency with vendor product-roadmap announcements and job-posting data for integration-engineering roles by sub-segment. Sensitivities were tested on the pace of hybrid-cloud adoption and on enterprise IT budget growth, since both assumptions move the forecast more than any single company's individual performance.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is firmest for the large-enterprise, North American and Western European segments, where public vendor revenue and customer-count disclosures are richest and the bottom-up build reconciles closely with reported figures. It is weaker for the small and mid-sized enterprise segment and for Latin America and the Middle East and Africa, where adoption is real but public reporting is thin and the estimate relies more on adjacent IT-spend proxies. A structural risk that would force a revision is a faster-than-assumed shift to embedded, low-code integration bundled inside broader SaaS suites, which could understate volumes priced outside a standalone integration product.
