In this post, we will continue the example begun in Parts 4 and 5. We are evaluating the Syndeia interoperability platform from Intercax using the criteria for evaluating integration solutions (IS) laid out in the first three parts of the series. In this part, we will focus on other functional and non-functional requirements. Performance against
