<jats:p>While photonic integration has made remarkable progress in recent years, there is no one integrated photonic platform that offers all desired functionalities and manufacturability on the same platform. GaAs and InP-based optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEICs) were very popular in the past decades; however, silicon photonics has recently emerged as a preferred platform due to its high-density and high-yield manufacturability leveraging the CMOS ecosystem, although it lacks optical gain, the Pockels effect, and other characteristics. On the other hand, hybrid photonic integration adds new and diverse functionalities to the host materials like silicon. This opinion paper investigates hybrid integrated photonic platforms, and discusses the new functionalities added to the silicon CMOS photonic platform.</jats:p>
