What is Atomic Scope

Think of it like the vNext of BAM (Business Activity Monitoring), but for the modern era. A lot has changed in the past 10 years. Today’s integration scenarios span across boundaries covering on-premise (BizTalk Server) and cloud (Azure Logic Apps). This brings its own unique challenges, one of them is getting the end-to-end visibility of your transactions.

In my experience of building integration solutions for 15 years, every time there is a need that I can see for most organization — to build some kind of end-to-end traceability/monitoring solution that can be used by the business users. The simplest and best example that I can give here is “Where is my purchase order acknowledgment?“. Typically, teams spend about 20-30% of their time addressing this challenge by building custom solutions like logging components, and web dashboards. Most of the time the solution will be premature, since building an enterprise-grade tracking/monitoring solutions requires enormous effort.

That’s exactly the challenge we are tackling in Atomic Scope.

If you are a BizTalk Server + Azure Logic Apps + Web API’s customer and wanted to the get hold of an end-to-end traceability/monitoring solution, then Atomic Scope is the answer. We are aiming to add more technologies in the upcoming releases.

We’ve put together a video showing how the product works end-to-end to help business users keep track and visualize their business activities that span across hybrid integration scenarios (involving Microsoft BizTalk Server and Azure Logic Apps) in real-time.
