Integration objectives are normally focused on whether the system of interest performs its basic functionality in accordance with stated requirements. Secondary considerations, such as effects on reliability or maintainability due to integration impacts, are often left unaddressed until a problem actually arises. By looking at several instances where these impacts had significant impact, we can take away several lessons learned to guide future integration efforts towards a more fully successful end result.
