Where the Rubber Meets the Road

A good proportion of the data center has leaked OUT of the data center

This particular genie will never go back

into the bottle

We will have to learn to live in THE CLOUD,

so how can we do that?

The Bloor Group

The Cloud Advantages

Zero capital investment / pay-as-

you-go

Very fast deployment of resources

Very fast deployment of software

Increasingly rich software ecosystem

“Standardized” (security, service

levels, etc.)

Cost

Extensibility

Increasingly versatile services

Going Forward

The question is not whether cloud adoption

will increase.

The question is whether your cloud adoption will be well-executed.

IT WILL

The Bloor Group

!   How big do you estimate this market to be?

!   Is Boomi appropriate for on-premise-to-on-premise application integration?

!   What are the circumstances, if any, where Boomi would be inappropriate for ETL?

Questions

The Bloor Group

!   How does load balancing work? How does Boomi scale, in practice?

!   Which size businesses are the most frequent adopters of Boomi?
