Boomi is a technology firm focused on delivering integration platform as a service (iPaaS), API management, master data management, and data preparation solutions. Established in 2000 by Rick Nucci in Berwyn, Pennsylvania, Boomi launched its integration services in 2007 and has grown into a prominent provider of cloud integration technologies.
History
The company originated with a "configuration-based" integration approach that allows users to design and implement integration workflows through an intuitive drag-and-drop interface—this remains a fundamental element of its platform. The name "Boomi" is inspired by Bhūmi, the Hindu deity representing Mother Earth.
In 2007, Boomi released "AtomSphere," a cloud-based Integration platform featuring a web browser interface with simple point-and-click tools for building integrations. This development played a significant role in establishing Boomi’s competitive position within the market.
February 2020 marked the launch of Boomi’s Integration Center of Excellence (ICoE), aimed at enhancing enterprise integration strategies through expert guidance and best practices.
By March 2020, Boomi employed around 1,300 individuals and supported more than 11,000 clients worldwide, highlighting its substantial footprint and expansion in the software integration sector.
M&A
- On November 2, 2010, Boomi was acquired by Dell, bolstering Dell’s Software as a Service portfolio.
- In March 2017, Boomi broadened its capabilities with the acquisition of ManyWho, a cloud development platform designed to accelerate partner solution deployment.
- The purchase of Unifi Software in December 2019 strengthened Boomi’s data management features.

Platform
Boomi provides a cloud-native integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that facilitates connectivity between applications and data sources using a low-code environment. Its offerings include comprehensive API management tools such as API Proxy, Gateway, and Developer Portal, alongside support for event-driven architecture (EDA).
Key partnerships for EDA include Dell EMC and Solace, with integrations extending to messaging services like Amazon SQS, Microsoft Azure Service Bus, and Pivotal RabbitMQ. Following the acquisition of Unifi Software, Boomi integrated advanced data discovery and cataloging capabilities into its platform while continuing to offer Unifi as an independent product.
In August 2019, Boomi’s iPaaS attained FedRAMP authorization, validating its compliance for use within government cloud environments.
The platform serves diverse sectors with clients including the American Cancer Society, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Gilead Sciences, Novartis, Sky Group, Texas Instruments, University of Technology Sydney, and Moderna.
Additionally, Boomi operates an Integration Center of Excellence (ICoE) that delivers reusable frameworks and industry-standard methodologies to optimize integration project execution.
