Integration Framework

Learn how to connect any application to and from Guidewire with the Cloud Integration Framework.

Integrations Should Be Easy to Build, Connect, and Maintain

The average P&C insurer’s core system includes several dozen integrations to critical business systems. If you’ve spent time building, testing, or deploying integrations, you’ve likely encountered one or more of these common challenges:

Complexity: Integrations are one of the hardest parts of any deployment because of the number, variety, and inconsistency of protocols, workflows, and file formats.
Intertwined logic: Your core system’s code includes both integration logic and functional logic.
Deployment impact: Your core system must be redeployed anytime the integration logic changes.

«Across the industry it’s common for insurers, depending on the complexity of their environment, to have up to 150 policy, billing, and claims integrations that connect their custom internal systems as well as third-party supported technologies.»

Simplify App Integrations with the Cloud Integration Framework

With cloud solutions and open APIs, developers can now easily connect their core systems with internal legacy systems and downstream apps to extend functionality. The Guidewire Cloud Integration Framework enables developers to implement integrations between InsuranceSuite and third-party apps using multiple APIs, messaging systems, or protocols.
