To create an integration from your Appian cloud instance to an application hosted within a customer’s self-managed environment, you need to ensure that there is a secure and reliable connection between the two systems. One way to do this is to set up a VPN tunnel, which is a virtual private network that encrypts and transports data over the internet. A VPN tunnel allows you to access the customer’s internal network and API endpoint from your Appian cloud instance, without exposing them to the public internet. This way, you can ensure the security and privacy of the data that is exchanged between the two systems. Verified References: [Appian Cloud VPN], [Appian Integration Guide]

The best way to divide the work between the teams, avoiding issues caused by cross-dependency, is to group epics and stories by feature, and allocate work between each team by feature. This way, each team can focus on a specific feature and minimize the need for coordination or integration with the other team. This also reduces the risk of conflicts or errors when merging the code from both teams. Verified References: Appian Documentation, section “Agile Development”.
