Key takeaways:
- Two new Boomi Agentstudio capabilities in early access this September put you in control of where your agents run
- An enhanced runtime deploys agents across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises, behind your firewall, paired with bring-your-own-model (BYOM) support
- Together, they give you flexibility and choice on your path to AI sovereignty. Meet residency requirements, keep proprietary data in your environment, and govern every agent from one control tower
Every enterprise racing to put AI agents into production hits the same wall: the workloads that matter most run on data you can’t send to the cloud. Workloads such as reconciling transactions, triaging patient questions, and moving sensitive records between core systems. The moment those agents and data sit in a jurisdiction you don’t control, a single policy shift can shut the whole operation down overnight. Once your proprietary data leaves the environment, there’s no pulling it back.
This has become a boardroom priority. 70% of CEOs rank technological sovereignty a key concern, and Gartner expects half of enterprises with foreign-controlled technology to be non-operational by 2030. The question has changed from whether to run AI to where you’re allowed to run it.
Businesses are now seeking the answer to the same question, how do you run agentic workflows and keep control of your data? The answer is private AI. Running your agents, and the models behind them, on infrastructure you control, so your data and its processing stay inside your environment. This September, two new Boomi capabilities make this a reality.
Deploy Agents Anywhere, in a Runtime You Control
Seize more control over where you want agents to run. Deploy agents across cloud, hybrid, or on-premises. This includes fully behind your firewall, where the entire agentic lifecycle of reasoning, data, and tool calls stays inside your environment. Put each workload exactly where it belongs, whether that’s a region that satisfies your regulators, or your own data center where your sensitive data stays put. Wherever they run, you govern every agent from a single control tower, with full visibility into what each one can access and do.
Running agents on your own turf usually means running everything yourself, the engine, the database, the patching, and the upgrades. Boomi splits the work. Your data and agent execution stay on your infrastructure, while Boomi keeps the design and monitoring plane running. You can advance your sovereignty without needing to maintain the entire stack.
Bring Your Own Model
The right agent needs the right model, and that’s rarely one model for everything. Match each use case to the model that fits, whether that’s a model from Boomi or a model from a major provider that you use. Then, ground agents in the proprietary data only you have.
Every competitor can reach the same frontier models, but the one thing they can’t reach is your data, this is your moat. Ground a model you trust in your proprietary data, and its answers get sharper on your business in ways a general model can’t do. This added control also means your costs stay predictable as you scale. When a better model comes along, swap it behind any agent and keep everything you’ve built.
In September, you can bring models from Anthropic, Gemini, and OpenAI, running on self-hosted runtimes with your own API keys. This is the first step toward where we’re taking BYOM: any model you choose, on any runtime, hosted wherever your requirements and data residency demand.
What Changes for Your Business
Private AI comes down to four things you keep control of:
- Protect your IP and sensitive data: Data stays inside your environment, under your control
- Control your costs: Run the models you choose on infrastructure you own, and turn unpredictable bills into spend you can forecast
- Stay ahead of regional regulations: Run each workload where residency and compliance require
- Keep your options open: A model-agnostic architecture lets you swap models as the market shifts, without rebuilding
But all of this becomes a moot point if you don’t have all of the other components that make agentic AI deployments successful at scale. Boomi is building the infrastructure that operationalizes enterprise AI, connecting your agents to the systems and data they need, governing every action they take, and keeping AI cost and risk under control. One platform to connect, govern, and run your entire agent estate, and private AI is how you keep it all in your control.
An agent stack built on your terms is difficult for anyone else to replicate, and that choice compounds into advantage. The further you build on it, the further ahead you get. Sovereignty is a journey, and every business sits at a different point on it. Boomi gives you the choice to advance on yours.
