Streamlining Research Data Integration for
LSTM with Boomi MDH
Client Overview
The Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) is a globally renowned institution dedicated to improving health outcomes in some of the world’s most disadvantaged communities. Established in 1898 as the world’s first institution devoted exclusively to tropical medicine, LSTM continues to lead the way in tackling global health challenges.
Through pioneering research, education, and clinical initiatives, LSTM focuses on combating infectious, neglected, and tropical diseases. Its work spans critical areas such as malaria, tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and maternal and child health.
Collaborating with partners in over 70 countries, LSTM delivers innovative solutions that address some of the most pressing health issues of our time.
Business Objective
LSTM aimed to centralize and enhance the accuracy of research personnel data (staff and students), enforce data quality standards, and provide a consistent source of truth by integrating it into the Research Information Management System Elsevier Pure. They were looking for a solution to eliminate manual intervention, ensure data quality, and consolidate duplicate records.

Challenges
Manual Configuration
Manual setup of AWS EKS risked errors and inconsistencies, necessitating full automation with Terraform.
EKS Learning
Internal team’s limited EKS expertise led to setup and troubleshooting challenges, needing better coordination.
Security Compliance
Implementing robust security measures and gaining approvals in a hyper-secure environment was complex.
Migration Disruptions
Migrating APIs risked downtime and integration issues, requiring phased migration and extensive testing.

Automated Integration
90-93% automated integration flows replaced the manual process of preparing and uploading XML files.
Reduced Duplication
Reduced data duplication with matching rules and MDH validations that only record per person exists in RIMS (Pure).
Enhanced Quality
Enhanced 100% data quality by building a quarantine in MDH to check that records met organizational standards before integration.
Consolidated Records
Consolidated person records in Pure helped LSTM to track research activities and affiliations accurately.
