Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
Small and Mid-sized Enterprises (SMEs), in particular, suffer from cost-inefficient projects for the integration of cloud applications due to conceptual differences from local applications and a variety of related technical obstacles. Open source projects have been around for 20 years and tackle highly complex and comprehensive problems in a cost-effective manner. Following design science research, we gather and identify requirements for the development of an open integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). We conducted a total of 20 interviews and obtained insights from cloud service providers (CSPs), integration service providers (ISPs), and SMEs. In this work, 641 requirements are collected and 67 sub-themes are identified as a result of extensive analysis. Furthermore, we outline 10 themes that align with three layers (provider, integration, and user) forming the target architecture of the underlying open source project in this paper. Finally, multiple insights are gathered for further employment, development, and research.
