The comment sparked a guessing game among tech reporters, but it turns out Dell is picking up a rather small company – Boomi had raised only $4 million in venture capital according to CrunchBase – but one that offers a compelling SaaS platform for many a company.

Boomi offers an application integration platform dubbed that aims to reduce cost and complexity out of integrating applications by allowing easy transfer of data between cloud-based and on-premise applications. The company says its solution removes the need for appliances, software or even coding.

Headquartered in Berwyn, Pennsylvania, Boomi says its solutions are used with the world’s leading cloud-based apps, including Salesforce CRM, as well as marketing, financial, human resources, content management and service-desk management.

Boomi says it manages “millions of transactions” a month and has completed “tens of thousands of cloud integrations” for “hundreds of customers” globally across a wide spectrum of industries.

The acquisition marks Dell’s third this year – it had earlier bought Ocarina Networks and Exanet.
