So my company is "in the cloud" with CRM. I am looking at ways to integrate our existing ERP system which is currently running on SQL 2005. Today, I have multiple jobs that export CSV files directly to the cloud vendor and am looking at replacing that batch processing to API's. Now it seems like everyone wants to sell me middleware or additional software to accomplish this.
Anyone else out there integrating in-house SQL systems with applications in the cloud? What has been your experience? Is it absolutely necessary to purchase and implement integration tools when I already own the cloud vendor apis?
Thanks and I'm sorry if this is a no-brainer but I really would like to get SQL expert opinions about this 🙂

"cloud" is a platform, not an application.
You can just forget about the word "cloud" and treat it as a remote server or group of servers - depending of what you have setup there.
