UTL-X
The transformation. Map this format to that format, this schema to that schema, with one language instead of one tool per format.
Glomidco / Next Level Middleware
Initiatives
Two decades of integration work eventually produces a strong opinion about what is missing in the middleware tooling of the day. Glomidco runs two open-source initiatives that put those opinions into code.
Both projects are independent in their own right — with their own websites, communities and release cadence — but they share a philosophy: open source as the default, vendor-neutral by design, and built for the messy reality of enterprise integration rather than for a polished demo.
/ Initiative 01
Universal Transformation Language — one language across formats.
An open-source, format-agnostic transformation language for converting between XML, JSON, CSV, YAML and OData. Think of it as a modern alternative to XSLT and an open alternative to DataWeave: one language and one CLI for every format you actually deal with in production.

Open-source enterprise middleware. Without the licence bill.
A Pulsar-native, Camel-powered integration platform built for the real enterprise stack — not the slide deck. Microservices, Kubernetes-native, with a component model that lets engineering teams ship integrations the way they already ship software.
Visit open-m.devWhy
Middleware has two recurring pain points. Data has to be reshaped as it crosses systems — and those systems have to be wired together reliably. UTL-X and Open-M each take one of those problems on directly.
/ Data layer
The transformation. Map this format to that format, this schema to that schema, with one language instead of one tool per format.
/ Runtime layer
The plumbing. Move messages reliably between systems, with the operational guarantees that production actually demands.
/ The link
UTL-X transformations run inside Open-M components. The same transformation logic also runs standalone from a CLI — pick the deployment that fits.
Stewardship
Glomidco B.V. is the legal steward of both projects. The work is developed in the open, the licences are real open-source licences, and the source of truth is the GitHub repository — not a company-internal fork.
Commercial licensing, support and customisation for either project run through Glomidco. If you are using UTL-X or Open-M in production and want a maintenance relationship rather than a community ticket, that’s the channel.
