In this webinar, we discuss powering the elastic enterprise with SnapLogic customer Jim Teal of iRobot, using cloud integration and the SnapLogic integration platform as a service (iPaaS). We also review the business drivers that led iRobot to invest in a modern, cloud-based integration solution to drive operational efficiency and improved quality in the data collection process.

Traditional Integration Approaches Can’t Keep Up
 Legacy EAI
– Not built for the web
– On-prem ESB
– Code-intensive
 Legacy ETL
– Built for rows and columns
– Batch-oriented
– Struggles with real-time
Organizations are increasingly turning to iPaaS offerings because of their
close affinity with SaaS and the anticipated greater ease of use, lower
costs and faster time-to-integration than traditional integration platforms.

Needed to increase
cadence and veracity of
distributed manufacturing
data collection processes
with a focus on operational
intelligence.
• Synchronize data
across multiple geos,
vendors, and firewalls
“With SnapLogic we’ve been able to eliminate
some of the rigidity and time-consuming tasks
related to traditional integration patterns.”
- Jim Teal, Information Architect
iRobot

14. 14
The Challenges We Faced
 Geographically distributed manufacturing
 Veracity of data and quality of testing was a concern
 Wanted to eliminate FTP and VPN channels
 Wanted to eliminate file-based processing
 Multiple SaaS applications:

15. 15
Options Considered
 Oracle Data Integrator already in use in-house
– Re-use existing file based integration patterns
– Establish persistent network connectivity to remote resources
and rewrite ODI integrations for database to database
integrations, eliminating file management
 Looked at another iPaaS solution
iPaaS

16. 16
Why SnapLogic?
 Software defined architecture
– Control plane in Boston, data planes in China
 Standards connectivity, eliminated VPNs, etc.
 “Groundplexes”
 Schema-less approach
 Strongly-type vs. weakly typed
 68 to 6 pipelines

17. 17
Next Steps with SnapLogic
 New Design Pattern developed is highly reusable and
we plan to expand the use cases to include additional
areas like:
– Quality Data Collection
– Repairs and Returns
– And many more
 Expand footprint of SnapLogic with other Snaps for
integration of cloud and on-premises apps to eliminate
data silos
