Enterprise use cases
Boomi Event Streams is a cloud-native, fully managed event streaming platform. It allows the integration and distribution of real-time data across Boomi AtomSphere and external systems using event-driven architecture (EDA).
E-Commerce
A large industry relies on batch-based integrations to manage customer data and order processing. This results in poor scalability, slow responses, and high development and maintenance costs. Causing delayed business decisions, loss of revenue, and inability to deliver the real-time experiences that customers demand.
Boomi Event streams provides solutions for these problems by providing an improved system decoupling, real-time responsiveness, and increased scalability and performance with its real-time integration features.
These key features include:
- Native integration with Boomi Platform
- Support for publish-subscribe messaging
- Stream replay, data durability, and message retention
- Governance and monitoring via Boomi Platform tools
By leveraging Boomi Event Streams, Breeze Industries can decrease operational issues, enhance agility and business innovation, reduce development costs by up to 30-50%, and increase customer satisfaction and retention.
Manufacturing and Logistics
A manufacturing company distributes hundreds of shipments to several different vendors on a daily basis. They need to provide these vendors with shipment statuses and strategize on shipment methods (single boxes vs. pallets), which can result in multiple receipts, causing difficulties in planning delivery routes and estimates.
With Boomi Event Streams' cloud-native solution, the manufacturing company can eliminate the maintenance burden, as this solution can be easily scaled to address any event processing needs. New applications can be easily plugged into the ecosystem by subscribing to the relevant event streams from the broker, with no disruption to existing systems.
Boomi Event Streams streamlines messaging to multiple user types via Asynchronous streaming. It also provides Notifications across multiple internal and external system, while providing status updates that assist in reducing customer service inquiries and provide transparency into order delivery statuses.
Event Streams acts as a central nervous system for the entire logistics operation, enabling a modern, event-driven architecture.
Event Streams, along with our Boomi integration process, decouples event producers (like the Orders App or GPS system) from event consumers (like the TMS or Finance System). Producers send events — such as a new order, position update, or complaint — to the broker.
Event Streams instantly routes these events to all the appropriate systems that have subscribed to that type of information. This ensures that the TMS, Price Engine, Track & Trace, and Analytics systems all have the most current data simultaneously.
This architecture provides a single, real-time view of the entire supply chain. It allows the business to react instantly to events, optimize delivery routes, provide customers with accurate, up-to-the-minute tracking information, and streamline financial reconciliation.
