An Integration moves data in one direction from one system to another. These systems are often incompatible with each other. As as a result, an integration may entail transforming the data from one format to another for compatibility with downstream systems.
Interfaces are the individual connections used to move data between incompatible systems. Within an integration, there may be multiple interfaces that do different jobs in order to get the data to where it needs to be. Iguana’s Components lends itself naturally to building integrations - you can create and link components as the building blocks of your interfaces.
A useful analogy is to compare an integration with a one-way flight from point A to B. Even though there may be connecting flights along the way (each connection being an interface), the entire trip is still one integration.
