I find that it usually depends on your requirements. 
If the data in question (whatever you are integrating with) needs to be updated at certain intervals, like a daily feed, or only on an occasional basis, then typically a "pull" integration is best. You pull data at the interval you need. 

 

If the data needs to be kept in sync in something closer to real-time (such as eBonding between ticketing systems) then typically you would elect to use a push integration - you push data as it changes. 

 

Those are somewhat basic guidelines, but that is where I would start, without further details to consider. 

 

I hope this helps!
