Boomi makes its AI control plane case: theCUBE’s Boomi World keynote analysis
The AI arms race has a new front, and it isn’t the battle over individual models — it’s war for the entire AI control plane.
That theme was front and center at Boomi World in Chicago, where Boomi LP Chief Executive Officer Steve Lucas spent two hours on stage steering the conversation away from model hype and toward the harder problems — data activation, governance and execution at scale. For Boomi itself, the hard work is behind them and the opportunity ahead is enormous, according to John Furrier (pictured, right), co-founder and CEO of SiliconANGLE Media Inc.
“The analysis is clear. We’ve covered Boomi now for almost a decade through their different evolutions,” Furrier said. “The AI control plane is hitting Chicago here at Boomi World, because they have a very strong opinion of this. Most people are obsessed over models, token economics — those things certainly important. But, at the end of the day, the enterprise is ultimately going to decide because that’s where the work’s getting done, that’s where the agents will thrive as they pivot off or extend off of all the coding values coming out. Agents are the next wave behind the coding — and Boomi’s been [preparing for] this.”
