Robotic Process Automation: Is Your Integration Strategy Ready for the Next Emerging Technology?
Lately, robotic process automation (RPA) has been coming up frequently in my conversations with C-level executives. Fueled by a new wave of RPA vendors, this emerging technology is being hyped as an essential element of digital transformation.
