SnapLogic, the outfit that calls itself the really simple
integration company and leverages RESTful web technology, has announced a
SugarCRM Solution Pack, an extension to its open source data integration
framework.
SnapLogic enables enterprises to integrate data on both
sides of the enterprise firewall and create custom integration solutions,
including application integrations, enterprise mashups and rich Internet
applications (RIAs).
The SugarCRM Solution Pack integrates SugarCRM with other
SaaS applications, behind-the-firewall enterprise applications, web sites and
other data sources. It supports both standard SugarCRM deployments, as well as
Sugar On-Demand implementations.
The widgetry will be available as a free download at
www.snaplogic.org and www.sugarexchange.com in August.
SnapLogic says its SugarCRM Solution Pack includes a
complete set of resources for reading, writing and updating every SugarCRM
module, including Accounts, Opportunities, Contacts and Campaigns.
Apparently integration pipelines can be created in minutes
of installing SnapLogic, even if SugarCRM’s standard objects have been
modified.
Uses include integrating SugarCRM account records with
in-house accounting systems and other enterprise applications; migrating
customer records from internal CRM systems to Sugar On-Demand; and creating
custom data feeds that enable authorized users to import SugarCRM data securely
into desktop applications, such as Excel.
The SugarCRM Solution Pack is licensed under the GPL v2. It
supports SnapLogic Community Edition and SnapLogic Professional Edition, each
available for Windows, Linux, VMware and Amazon EC2.
