Evolveum Discusses IGA Application Integration at Gartner IAM Summit 2026

Evolveum Discusses IGA Integration Challenges at Gartner IAM Summit 2026

In a significant presentation at the Gartner Identity & Access Management (IAM) Summit 2026 held in London, Evolveum, the company known for its flagship platform midPoint, showcased its commitment to addressing the critical issues surrounding Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) application integration. The company aims to streamline the complexities that organizations face while connecting enterprise applications to IGA platforms.

The Insights Shared by Pavol Mederly

During the summit, Pavol Mederly, Evolveum's product chief, delivered a compelling talk titled “The Hidden Cost of Slow Application Onboarding in IGA”. His presentation focused on a major obstacle that organizations encounter—the time-consuming and complex process of integrating business applications with IGA platforms.

Mederly introduced midPilot, an AI-driven integration assistant that is now part of the midPoint platform. This innovative tool is designed to automate the configuration and mapping processes involved in application onboarding, thereby reducing deployment timelines and overall costs. Mederly emphasized that midPilot illustrates how identity security can be both scalable and efficient by leveraging the flexibility offered by open-source solutions.

Market Shifts towards Open Source Solutions

The summit also highlighted a systematic shift in the market as organizations are increasingly moving away from proprietary IGA solutions. Concerns regarding digital sovereignty—including issues like vendor lock-in, data residency, and the need for transparency in critical identity infrastructure—are driving this transition. Mederly commented, “We are witnessing a fundamental shift in how organizations evaluate their identity security investments. Sovereignty over identity infrastructure is no longer just an advantage; it has become a strategic necessity.”

Save the Date for the Second MidPoint Community Meetup

Following the insights from the summit, Evolveum is excited to invite the community to the Second Annual MidPoint Community Meetup, scheduled for May 12-15, 2026, in Prague. This event is set to gather identity professionals, the MidPoint community, and the Evolveum team for hands-on learning and knowledge sharing.

Participants of all levels will benefit from practical sessions focused on identity governance strategies, real-life midPoint deployments, and the latest platform developments, including midPilot. Mederly stated, “While the Gartner Summit allowed us to share the ‘why’ behind modern IGA, our community meetup will showcase the ‘how’.”
