The easiest way of accomplishing a successful Joomla Moodle integration involves using a middleware. There are many such software applications available in the market and finding one that will meet your business integration requirements is never daunting. However, not all middleware that claim to achieve this type of integration perform to the desired level. The third party middleware often lacks any end-user features for side usage of individual capabilities.

They are primarily designed to enable integration between Joomla and Moodle to allow information sharing and automatic updating. As aforesaid, this integration entails adding Joomla features into the Moodle platform to enhance content management in the LMS. Third party middleware packages (modules and applications) are only used when needed by one or more software tools. They act as an interface that allows inter-software syncing. The major components of a typical integration middleware include:

An administrator panel screen that allows users to make setting changes on the Moodle database
An API function that enables communication and connection to Moodle database

Existing middleware often achieve integration between content management systems, learning management systems and e-commerce applications. Some of the Joomla Moodle integration middleware include Joomdle, Super Moodle and Moodle Connector among others.
