Keith Guttridge's main focus is on integration architectures, strategies and technologies. From an architecture perspective, he focuses on mesh app and services architecture (MASA), Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and event driven architecture(EDA). Integration technologies include application integration software such as enterprise service bus (ESB), integration platform as a service (iPaaS), managed file transfer (MFT), message oriented middle including event brokers, as well as code-based approaches to integration delivery. He also covers organizational issues for integration, including integration competency centers (ICCs), integration strategy empowerment teams(ISET) and centers of excellence (COEs). Keith also works on Gartner initiatives including Digital Business Technology Platform, Composable Business and Hyperautomation.
