Atom in Dell Boomi & AtomSphere Integration:

What is an Atom

• At the lowest level of Boomi’s architecture is the Atom.
• An Atom is a lightweight, dynamic runtime engine created with patent-pending technology, Boomi Atoms contain all the components required to execute an integration process.
• There is a full-featured dashboard to monitor the status and health of all Atoms and integration processes whether they are deployed in the cloud or on-premise.
• This is a single-tenant, single node runtime engine. It contains all of the components (connectors, transformation rules, business/processing logic) required to execute processes.
• It is lightweight and can be installed to a local machine or virtual machine in the cloud.

Integration is the act of bringing together smaller components into a single system that functions as one.

In an IT context, integration refers to the end result of a process that aims to stitch together different, often disparate, subsystems so that the data contained in each becomes part of a larger, more comprehensive system that, ideally, quickly and easily shares data when needed.

Those who have purchased the Live Course will get free instance for the first time and those with self-paced will have to purchase the instance separately. So, you just have to practice our hands-on on the instance.

2) What is AS2 in the connector part?

Ans. AS2 (Applicability Statement 2) is a specification about how to transport data securely and reliably over the Internet. Security is achieved by using digital certificates and encryption. It is generally used for socket programming.
