    Integration vs. Autonomy in Enterprise Systems – Does Enterprise-level AI Adoption Change the Game?
    (2026-01-06) Winter, Robert; Bender, Benedict
    Enterprise systems have allowed companies and administrations to integrate operations across functional silos. The scope of integration has gradually extended toward supply chains and broader business ecosystems. The growing adoption of AI applications introduces localized application scenarios and raises questions about how these systems interact with existing enterprise system integration logic. Specifically, AI adoption challenges the balance between integration scope and decision autonomy at the enterprise level. Through a conceptually guided analysis of various AI adoption cases, we explore the emergence of different autonomy-integration configurations across distinct application contexts. While some AI use cases align with traditional enterprise system integration stages, others introduce novel coordination configurations that deviate from classic integration patterns. Our findings underscore the need for adaptive integration concepts in AI adoption that extend beyond traditional fusion logics to address the evolving demands of orchestration, composability and federated governance in enterprise architectures.

    Enterprise Software Integration Through Boundary Resources – A Case Study in the SAP Ecosystem
    (2026-01-06) Landler, Philipp; Wittges, Holger; Krcmar, Helmut
    Leading enterprise software providers use a platform-based approach to realize the adaptability of their software solutions with extensions. In a platform-based approach, boundary resources enable the integration of extensions with the platform core. However, it is unclear how developers select appropriate boundary resources and their integrative capabilities. This paper investigates the decision process for developing boundary resources in the SAP ecosystem, presents a decision model for selecting appropriate platform boundary resources, and analyzes integration use cases. Our findings show that boundary resources differ greatly in their potential to integrate extensions with data and processes in the enterprise software and whether they can integrate across organizational borders.
