Case Study: Sumitomo Corporation Asia & Oceania achieves zero data loss and modernized integrations in six weeks with MuleSoft's Anypoint Platform

Sumitomo Corporation Asia & Oceania modernizes business processes by moving from Microsoft BizTalk to Anypoint Platform in just six weeks

Sumitomo Corporation Asia & Oceania (SCAO), a Singapore‑based arm of the conglomerate, relied on Microsoft BizTalk to exchange purchase orders, confirmations and shipping notifications with trading partners but faced frequent outages, regular data loss and time‑intensive manual restarts that drove up support costs and disrupted customer‑facing operations. Management needed a fast, seamless replacement that would restore reliability without impacting end users.

SCAO partnered with MuleSoft and WhiteSky Labs to deploy Anypoint Platform, using Anypoint Studio, DataMapper and prebuilt connectors to integrate bespoke purchasing systems and a centralized Oracle database. The solution was delivered in six weeks with zero end‑user interruption, eliminated data loss, reduced production CPU cores by over 50% and cut support time—resulting in a more reliable, cost‑effective integration platform.
