Connector library (15+) — Use case
Database, Kafka, RabbitMQ, FTP, IBM MQ, file systems, and more — drag-and-drop task flows over the connectors that hold your enterprise together.
Developers · Integration · For developers
Fifteen-plus connectors. One task-flow surface.
Apinizer's API Integrator turns enterprise connectors into drag-and-drop steps. Database, Kafka, RabbitMQ, FTP, IBM MQ, file systems, HTTP, SOAP, gRPC — all governed by the same gateway.

The problem
The problem
Most teams treat 'integration' as a tax they pay forever.
Every new system needs a connector, an adapter, and a maintenance owner. Teams either buy a heavy iPaaS (and inherit a parallel ops stack) or hand-roll point-to-point integrations (and inherit a maintenance backlog). Apinizer's connector library makes integration a feature of the gateway: 15+ connectors, drag-and-drop task flows, one runtime, one audit.
Capabilities
Database connectors
PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, Db2, Mongo — read, write, stored procedures, with pooled connections and audit.
Messaging connectors
Kafka, RabbitMQ, IBM MQ, Solace — produce, consume, transform in the same task flow. Backpressure handled.
File and protocol
FTP / SFTP, file system, HTTP, SOAP, gRPC, email — every legacy and modern surface a connector.
Drag-and-drop task flow
Compose steps visually — read, transform, branch, fan-out, fan-in, write. Same designer engineers and analysts both use.
Governed at the gateway
Connector credentials in the encrypted vault. Each step audits. Rate limits and retries apply.
As-code-ready
Task flows ship as APIops manifests. Review in Git, apply through pipelines.
Real-world examples
Banking
Scenario: Istanbul bank wires core banking to Kafka and partner SFTP
Outcome: Task flow: pull from core, transform, fan-out to Kafka topic and partner SFTP. One designer, two destinations, one audit.
Manufacturing
Scenario: Stuttgart OEM streams MES events into 4 systems
Outcome: Task flow consumes from Kafka, branches by event type, writes to ERP, data lake, partner API, and alerting. No separate integration product.
Public sector
Scenario: Stockholm agency lifts FTP file drops into a REST API
Outcome: Connector watches an SFTP folder; task flow parses and exposes each record as a governed REST endpoint. Legacy partners keep dropping files; new partners get an API.
Retail
Scenario: Madrid retailer integrates POS and ERP through one task flow
Outcome: POS pushes via HTTP; flow transforms; ERP receives via IBM MQ. Visual designer means store-ops engineers contribute changes.
Insurance
Scenario: Amsterdam insurer feeds claim events into a data lake + ML pipeline
Outcome: Task flow consumes from RabbitMQ, decorates with policy data from PostgreSQL, writes to S3 and triggers a model retrain.
Telecom
Scenario: Milan carrier bridges legacy SOAP to modern partners via task flow
Outcome: Inbound REST hits the gateway, flow transforms to SOAP, calls the legacy host, returns clean JSON. Modern partners never see SOAP.
Energy
Scenario: Prague utility ingests SCADA data into the analytics lake
Outcome: Kafka connector consumes SCADA events; task flow enriches with topology data; writes to data lake and alarming surface in one pass.
Government
Scenario: Baku ministry routes citizen requests across 9 backend systems
Outcome: One task flow per request type. Visual designer accepted by both engineers and policy analysts; changes ship in days, not quarters.
