The document discusses Dell Boomi Atomsphere, an integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that facilitates various integrations between cloud, SaaS, and on-premises applications without the need for coding. It outlines three main stages of the integration process: build, deploy, and manage, detailing the steps to create integration logic and how to configure connectors for data transfer. The platform supports both cloud and on-premise deployment models and offers capabilities for monitoring integration health.

Introduction
Dell Boomi is an Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) and multi-tenant platform that
supports cloud-to-cloud, SaaS-to-SaaS, cloud-to-on-premises, on-premises-to-on-premises
and B2B integration. It saves the customer‟s time and reduces errors compared to what
occurs in manually mapping integration. Boomi AtomSphere allows you to connect any
combination of Cloud, SaaS, or on-premises applications with no appliances or software or
coding. The Dell Boomi AtomSphere approach to integration is configuration based rather
than code based.
The integration process is divided into three sections:
1. Build
2. Deploy
3. Manage
This document explains the three stages in the integration process.
Build Phase
In the build phase, you need to specify the integration logic to communicate between
different applications. You can specify it, by using Boomi‟s visual tool, without using any
code. Following is the overview of the build phase.

How to implement build phase?
1. Create a process
A process is the central element of the integration logic. Through the process, you can
specify the incoming and outgoing data between the applications. Processes are used
connectors to accomplish the data transfer through the applications.
You can create a process by clicking on Create Component link and it will look like this:
Here, a component is created with the name “First Demo App”.
Every process begins with an inbound connector and ends with one or more outbound
connectors. Inbound connectors are used to get data from the application to the
integration process and outbound connectors are used to send data from the integration
process to the application.
Process components contain:
 Execution shapes - It manipulates the data throughout the process.
 Logic shapes - It controls the flow of data throughout the process.

2. Create an inbound connector
You need to specify the incoming data to be used for integration process from one
source. The source may be database, web application, on premise application, disk, FTP,
etc.

Here, the Action type is selected as Get. For every connector, you need to define a:
 Connection – which specifies the source from which we retrieve the data.
 Operation – which specifies how to get the data.

In the connection field, you can provide the source system as web application URL, with
credentials or the host name, with port or IP address.
In operation, you can specify how to get data from the source. You can specify the input
type and output type, etc.

3. Define Outbound Connectors
Outbound connector sends data to the destination. You need to specify the destination
as connection and how to pass data to destination as operation. The action method used
for outbound connectors is “send”.
4. Mapping Function
In mapping function, you need to implement the mapping between incoming and
outgoing data. For this you can use Map shape. Mapping means how you process the
data from input and integrate the data to the destination as output.
Here, the incoming data in SMS Text is as follows:
Input: Body=AccountID-Message-Name
Output: Account Id, Message, Name

For processing the data, you can define the mapping functions.
5. Define other execution and logic shapes, if needed
You can, also, define other execution shapes like decision making, branching, etc.
For ex: - Check if Account ID is valid in the SMS.

You can use branching to check whether the account ID is valid or not.
Deploy Phase
In deploy phase, you need to deploy the integration process in the build phase to a run-time
engine called "atom". This atom allows you to run the integration process on-premise or in
on cloud. Boomi supports two deployment models:
 Cloud deployment – If all integration end points are cloud based, you can use this
model. You can deploy the atom onto Dell Boomi Atom Cloud.
 On-premise deployment – If any of the integration end point is within a corporate
network.
Manage Phase
In manage phase, you can monitor the health of the integration processing.
Conclusion
Dell Boomi AtomSphere is an on-demand multi-tenant cloud integration platform for
connecting cloud and on-premises applications and data. The platform enables customers to
design cloud-based integration processes called „Atoms‟ and transfers data between cloud
and on-premises applications. Each Atom defines what is necessary for the integration. It is
fairly accessible via a browser and delivers an impressive range of integration, master data
management (MDM) and platform extension capabilities.
