We just wrapped our first reimagined North America SnapLogic User Group virtual meeting, and it was nothing short of inspiring. This milestone event brought together customers, partners, and innovators for a high-energy session packed with real-world stories, community-built tools, and practical tips for getting more value from SnapLogic.

Whether you’re new to SnapLogic or scaling complex enterprise integrations, the session delivered clear, actionable lessons you can apply today. I’ve included a few highlights for a peek behind the curtain.

Real-world data orchestration success: how Yamaha cut order times from 2 hours to 7 minutes

Hans Ghekiere, Data Architect at Yamaha (and previously at Aramark), gave attendees a behind-the-scenes look at two successful SnapLogic-driven transformations.

At Aramark, Hans replaced legacy platforms like Informatica Cloud and Oracle Data Integrator with SnapLogic to accelerate financial ETL, enabling real-time reporting and reducing maintenance overhead. At Yamaha, his team modernized EDI workflows, converting X12 to JSON and cutting Amazon order processing time from two hours to just seven minutes.

Actionable takeaways:

  • Leverage SnapLogic’s speed and ease of use to experiment and iterate fast
  • Modernize legacy EDI and ETL tools to unlock real-time capabilities
  • You don’t need a large team: Yamaha’s lean 7-person squad handles enterprise-grade workloads thanks to SnapLogic’s low-code agility.

AI + governance, meet “Pete,” your integration co-pilot

Alex Memca from IWConnect demoed Pete, a smart AI assistant purpose-built to improve documentation, visibility, and governance within SnapLogic.

Pete connects to tools like Confluence and SharePoint, offers real-time governance metrics, and highlights areas for optimization in your pipelines.

What’s in it for you:

  • Speed up internal documentation efforts
  • Improve visibility and accountability for integration governance
  • Try it for free: IWConnect is offering a limited license to the community

Developers, get hands-on with Mapper Playground

Vignesh Kumaravel from Mulecraft unveiled a powerful resource for developers: the Mapper Playground. This interactive, browser-based tool helps SnapLogic users sharpen their skills with Live previews, error handling, tutorials, and support for large JSON payloads. This does not require a SnapLogic instance. Future features include XML support and AI guidance.

Why it matters:

  • Great for onboarding or platform switching
  • Helps teams master the Mapper Snap faster and with more confidence
  • Your feedback shapes the roadmap: Mulecraft is building this for (and with) the community

5 lessons you can apply now

  1. Speed matters: SnapLogic processed 2M records in 12 seconds in recent benchmarks. Use that speed to reimagine what’s possible.
  2. Start small, move fast: Even lean teams can deliver enterprise-scale transformation.
  3. AI isn’t just hype: Tools like Pete show how AI can make governance, documentation, and decision-making easier.
  4. Upskill interactively: Tools like Mapper Playground help users self-educate without needing full environments.
  5. Engage your peers: User Groups are a goldmine for tested ideas, lessons learned, and ongoing support.

Up next: more events, more voices, more innovation
