Companies in the SME and corporate environment are facing a key challenge today: their IT landscapes are becoming increasingly complex. ERP systems, CRM solutions, e-commerce platforms, data warehouses, cloud services and legacy systems - the number of applications is constantly increasing. This leads to data silos, inconsistent information and inefficient processes.
The solution lies in a modern integration platform that seamlessly connects systems, applications and data sources. This is exactly where Boomi comes in: one of the world's leading iPaaS solutions (Integration Platform as a Service), which helps companies to implement integration projects quickly, flexibly and future-proof.
Boomi is a cloud-native platform that has been specially developed for the integration of heterogeneous systems. As an iPaaS, it offers a central environment to:
Connect applications and data sources, whether on-premises or in the cloud,
develop and manage APIs,
automate workflows and business processes,
ensure data quality through Master Data Management (MDM),
and implement integration faster thanks to a low-code approach.
Boomi has been one of the leading platforms in Gartner Magic Quadrants for Enterprise Integration for years and is used in numerous industries - from financial services to retail and manufacturing companies.
A key advantage of Boomi is the rapid implementation of integration projects. Thanks to the low-code approach and more than 2,000 ready-made connectors, companies can implement new interfaces in just a few days or weeks. Proof-of-concepts can be implemented particularly quickly so that the added value of the platform becomes visible early on and projects achieve significantly shorter time-to-value times.
Boomi also impresses with its high level of flexibility for hybrid and multi-cloud landscapes. The platform not only supports cloud-to-cloud integrations, but also on-premises and hybrid scenarios. Companies that want to gradually migrate their systems to the cloud benefit from this openness. Boomi also offers comprehensive API management, which creates the basis for service-oriented architectures.
Another focus is on ensuring data quality and governance. With the integrated Master Data Hub, master data can be managed centrally and synchronized in real time across all systems. The result is consistent databases that ensure more precise analyses and well-founded business decisions.
Boomi is also ideally positioned in terms of scalability. The platform grows with the company's requirements - both in medium-sized businesses and in the global corporate environment. Thanks to a multi-client architecture, increasing data volumes can be handled without any problems, while automation increases the efficiency of processes.
Last but not least, security and compliance play a central role. Boomi meets international standards such as GDPR, ISO 27001 and SOC. Data is transmitted in encrypted form and role-based access controls provide additional security. These features make the platform particularly attractive for regulated industries such as financial services or healthcare.
The possible applications are wide-ranging. Particularly relevant are scenarios such as:
ERP ↔ CRM integration (e.g. SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics)
E-commerce and logistics (e.g. integration of store systems with ERP and fulfillment systems)
Cloud migration (e.g. transition from on-premises systems to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud)
API management (e.g. setting up an API ecosystem for partners and customers)
Initial situation:
An international retail company uses SAP as its ERP system and Salesforce as its CRM system. Both systems work separately, which leads to duplicate data maintenance and inconsistent customer information.
Solution with Boomi:
Boomi connects SAP and Salesforce via standardized connectors. Customer and order data is synchronized in real time. Changes in Salesforce (e.g. new leads or customer information) are automatically transferred to ERP and vice versa.
Result:
Standardized customer database
Elimination of manual interfaces
Faster order processing
Improved customer experience
Initial situation:
A manufacturing company operates several legacy applications on-premises and would like to migrate them to the cloud (Azure) step by step. However, a complete replacement in one fell swoop is not possible.
Solution with Boomi:
Boomi acts as an integration layer between the on-premises systems and the new cloud services. Data and processes are migrated successively without interrupting ongoing operations.
The result:
Smooth migration with simultaneous system availability
Flexible hybrid architecture with future-proofing
Reduction in operating costs through cloud use
Faster ROI thanks to accelerated project implementation
Even though Boomi is a low-code platform, successful integration means more than just the technical connection of systems. It is about:
Architectural decisions (e.g. API strategies, data flows, security concepts),
governance and data quality,
change management within the company.
An experienced IT service provider not only contributes technical expertise, but also accompanies the entire process from architecture planning to implementation and operation. This ensures that the investment in Boomi delivers maximum added value.
Boomi enables companies to connect their heterogeneous IT landscapes, automate processes and ensure data quality. With its strengths in speed, flexibility and scalability, Boomi is a future-proof choice for IT managers and integration specialists in SMEs and corporate environments.
