PI is an on premise solution whereas IBM Cast Iron is a cloud based Integration Solution. Therefore a comparison between products built for separate purposes won't be fair.

You may check out my blog where I talk a bit about both:

You may however compare it with Point 5 in my blog which is almost an "SAP PI on cloud" solution.

too early to compare SAP PI with IBM Cast Iron ,as prateek already pointed out IBM Cast Iron cloud based itegration too but where PI moving to cloud space(not sure about the path).

But i am sure you can achive IBM Cast Iron integrayion functionality using PI.
