The use of data integration by human resources departments, which deal with different types of data for compensation, workforce planning, talent acquisition, social media and other areas, is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. With emergence of new HR analytics use cases, such as talent analytics and workforce capital analytics, data integration tools will be crucial for effective data analysis.

The data integration market by deployment model is segmented into two types: on-premises and on-demand, the report said. The on-demand deployment model is expected to see the highest growth during the forecast period, due to its cost effectiveness, scalability and ease of deployment.

North America is estimated to hold the largest share of the data integration market in 2017, because of unprecedented growth of data in the region that is due to a rise in the adoption of mobile and Internet of Things technologies.
