From Data to Action: Orchestrating AI Agents for a Connected Future
Researched and written by Marco Rodrigues, Voglio
Businesses today are navigating a significant transformation driven by AI, and many are realizing that AI’s true potential extends far beyond the isolated use of models or predictive tools. The future lies in AI agents – autonomous systems that can perform complex tasks, collaborate with other agents, and continuously learn from data to optimize performance. As McKinsey highlights, «AI agents are the next evolution of how work gets done,» transitioning from simple rule- based automation to sophisticated systems capable of making decisions, solving problems, and improving processes autonomously. This shift is being powered by advancements in generative AI, which enables these agents to perform complex tasks across multiple business functions, from customer service to data management.
As organizations adopt these AI-driven systems, the need for platforms capable of integrating and orchestrating AI agents becomes critical. Companies now require solutions that not only facilitate agent collaboration but also ensure data quality, scalability, and governance. Platforms like Boomi offer the necessary tools to manage these AI ecosystems, allowing businesses to deploy and orchestrate AI agents seamlessly. Boomi’s low-code iPaaS platform is well-positioned to manage the complexity of AI systems, allowing businesses to integrate AI agents across workflows, maintaining data integrity while simplifying complex processes.
Data readiness is central to AI success. According to the Harvard Business Review, “Poor data quality is enemy number one to the widespread, profitable use of machine learning,” reinforcing that without high-quality data, AI systems struggle to deliver reliable insights. Boomi’s data management capabilities -for example, Data Hub – ensure that businesses maintain clean, consistent data across systems, an essential aspect when deploying multiple AI agents.
As businesses scale their AI operations, managing the increasing number of AI agents and ensuring their seamless collaboration becomes critical. According to the MIT Technology Review, organizations must develop “robust, scalable AI infrastructure” to handle growth and maintain operational efficiency. This infrastructure needs to support continuous AI development and allow businesses to orchestrate AI agents without compromising performance or security. Platforms that integrate and govern AI agents effectively are key to scaling AI initiatives in a sustainable manner, ensuring that they can meet future business demands.
Furthermore, as AI agents increasingly rely on APIs to interact with other systems and data sources, platforms that offer strong API management capabilities—like Boomi—are essential for ensuring smooth, secure interactions between agents. APIs serve as the backbone of AI agent communication, allowing businesses to avoid operational silos and ensure that AI-driven processes are streamlined.
Addressing the challenge of responsible AI is also a must. In today’s regulatory environment, with frameworks like GDPR governing data privacy, organizations must implement ethical AI practices. Boomi supports this through robust data governance features that help businesses comply with regulations while reaping the benefits of AI-driven automation.
Looking ahead, businesses will increasingly rely on multiple AI agents working in concert. Orchestrating these agents will require platforms capable of managing data, facilitating API communication, and ensuring compliance. Boomi, with its focus on data quality, scalability, and responsible AI, is positioned to help organizations navigate this future, empowering them to embrace AI and maximize its potential for business value.
