  • Dell Boomi Customers Turn Data into Intelligent Action with Connectivity to Microsoft Cortana Intelligence Suite

ROUND ROCK, Texas, September 27, 2016 Dell Boomi, today announced connectivity support for Microsoft Cortana Intelligence Suite, Microsoft’s cloud-based big data, advanced analytics and machine learning platform for organizations to transform data into intelligent action. Utilizing Boomi connectors, customers can quickly and flexibly integrate data and applications between Cortana Intelligence Suite, part of the Cortana Intelligence Suite Microsoft Azure cloud platform, and virtually any combination of cloud or on-premises data sources. Dell Boomi’s extension of its market-leading AtomSphere integration platform as a service (iPaaS) for Cortana Intelligence Suite better equips organizations to make informed, data-driven decisions, while seamlessly transitioning to hybrid IT environments of cloud-based and on-premises applications.

Available now, Dell Boomi’s new prebuilt connectors to Azure SQL Data Warehouse, Azure SQL Database and Azure Blob Storage – key technologies of Cortana Intelligence Suite – empower organizations to build connectivity at a fraction of the time and cost of custom-coded integration.

The new connectors strengthen the Dell Boomi and Microsoft relationship and underscore a commitment to help joint customers maximize the value of their IT investments. These connectors add to the Dell Boomi portfolio of integration solutions for Microsoft technologies, including the Microsoft Dynamics business suite, Microsoft SQL Server database and Microsoft SharePoint collaboration and document management platform. Dell Boomi made the announcement at the sold-out Microsoft Ignite conference in Atlanta, Georgia, where Boomi is demonstrating the new solutions at booth 801.

“Dell Boomi is proud to work with Microsoft to help customers capitalize on data and advanced analytics for improved insights and decision-making, a critical ingredient in digital transformation,” said Chris McNabb, Dell Boomi CEO. “Dell Boomi’s cloud integration connectors for Microsoft Cortana Intelligence Suite position organizations to accelerate time-to-value and progress smoothly to a cloud-first IT and analytics environment.”
