Boomi Managed Cloud Service Delivers the Boomi AtomSphere Platform as a Fully Managed Service

At Boomi, we see how quickly customers are moving to use data and connectivity to pursue digital transformation initiatives and realize their digital ambitions.

Part of this complex, innovative work involves making smart decisions about which aspects of IT companies are going to manage themselves internally and which they’re going to entrust to a partner like Boomi. Outsourcing some operations to a partner frees internal teams to focus on the proprietary data and technology that only they have the knowledge and expertise to manage.

We want to give customers that flexibility when it comes to Boomi processes, whether on premises or in the cloud. That’s why we launched Boomi Managed Cloud Service (MCS).

Boomi MCS gives organizations a ready-built, tried, tested, and proven cloud platform optimized for Boomi AtomSphere. Boomi’s Cloud Operations Center monitors and manages Boomi MCS environments to safeguard iPaaS services.

For organizations that want take advantage of the connectivity and automation of the Boomi platform without managing Boomi runtimes themselves, Boomi MCS provides a fast, secure, and scalable solution.

Case Study: Campus-Specific Cloud Services for a Leading American University

Here’s an example of how Boomi MCS makes cloud operations more flexible, cost-efficient, and manageable.

A leading American university wanted to give each of its campus its own dedicated Boomi workspace within the university’s larger cloud environment. Campus IT staff were already busy enough, so the university’s IT leadership didn’t want to give them another service to manage. But university IT leaders did want the Boomi workspaces to be carefully managed and monitored. They also wanted to put a chargeback system in place, so that each campus’s cloud activities could be tracked and then billed appropriately.

Boomi MCS solved the problem. The university signed up for Boomi MCS and set up each campus with its own Boomi scalable, highly available (HA) Boomi workspace. The Boomi Operations Center oversees the deployment, monitoring, and patching of all the workspaces. Boomi also tracks the usage of each workspace for chargebacks, enabling all Boomi workloads to be managed through line-of-business (LOB) accounting.

Now each campus has a dedicated Boomi workspace for building integrations and managing data without having to overextend the university’s already busy IT staff.
