As\nan integration developer, you can quickly connect to a growing pool of applications and systems\n*without the need for protocol-specific knowledge or the use of custom code*.\n| **Note:** Both [Application Integration](/application-integration/docs/overview) and [Apigee Integrations](/apigee/docs/api-platform/integration/what-is-apigee-integration) support Integration Connectors.\n\nKey benefits\n------------\n\nWith Integration Connectors, you can quickly and\neasily implement key configurations for each connected service or application:\n\n- **Authentication**: Each Connector offers one or more supported authentication methods that can be configured for the target application.\n- **Endpoint Configuration:** Each Connector is custom configured to connect to one instance of an application or technology via URL, tenant ID, or other identification mechanism specific to the connector type.\n- **Protocol Mediation:** Each Connector translates the native communication protocol of the target application, such as Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), into a standard communication protocol, like REST.\n- **Data format mediation:** Each Connector translates the native data format of the target application to a standardized data format. The Connector then loads the schema for targeted data into your integration, making the data available for use by integration tasks.\n- **Data discovery:** Each Connector inspects the target application and provides a list of data objects and operations available for use in an integration.\n- **Event subscription:** You can configure event listeners for the connectors, and use the events to trigger your integrations.\n\nSimplified integration development\n----------------------------------\n\nAs an integration developer, you can use the Google Cloud console to:\n\n- Create and configure a connection once and use the connection in any future integrations.\n- Discover a wide array of available target application interfaces.\n- Interact with data from multiple disparate sources and formats in a standardized and streamlined manner.\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- To get started with Integration Connectors, see [Set up Integration Connectors](/integration-connectors/docs/setup-integration-connectors).\n- To view the list of all the available connectors, see [All Integration Connectors](/integration-connectors/docs/all-integration-connectors).\n- Try [Perform CRUD operations on a MySQL database](/integration-connectors/docs/perform-crud-operation-mysql-database).\n- Discuss Integration Connectors with the community on [Cloud Forums](https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/Integration-Services/bd-p/cloud-integration-services)."]]
