The Informatica Cloud
Comprehensive, Unified, Open, and Economical
The rapid adoption of cloud-based applications, platforms, and infrastructure has resulted in more fragmented data scattered across the enterprise - both inside and outside of the firewall. To make the most of your company’s investments in the cloud, you need to make sure that the data within these systems is accurate, complete, and up-to-date. It must be available precisely when your users need it. And data must be fully synchronized with data in your on-premise applications and databases, as well as with data in other cloud-based systems.
It's never been more important to not only remain in control of your data assets, but to be able to access, integrate, and trust them—wherever they are. As the industry-leading data integration company, Informatica is uniquely positioned to help companies that have invested in the cloud to derive the maximum value from their investment.
Informatica Cloud Services
Informatica Cloud Services deliver purpose-built data integration cloud applications to allow business users to integrate data across cloud-based applications and on-premise systems and databases. Informatica Cloud Services address specific business processes (customer/product master synchronization, opportunity to order, etc.) and point-to-point data integration (e.g. Salesforce.com to on premise or cloud-to-cloud end-points).
Informatica Cloud Platform
The Informatica Cloud Platform takes advantage of the underlying PowerCenter data integration engine and includes online registration, user and task flow management, job scheduling and monitoring, error handling, compression, encryption and a secure agent to access and integrate cloud-based data with on-premise sources. With the Informatica Cloud Platform, customers and partners can build, manage, and share custom data integration services in the cloud.
Cloud Integration Endpoints and Plug-ins
Informatica Cloud Services can connect to on-premise and cloud applications, databases, flat files, file feeds, and even social networking sites. And the Informatica Cloud Platform makes just about any type of data integration as a custom cloud service possible. Whether it's already prebuilt and ready to go or you'd like to find out if your particular end-point is supported, contact us today to find out if we have the packaged endpoint or custom function you need to access and integrate your cloud data. Be sure to visit the Informatica Marketplace to check out our library of pre-packaged Informatica Cloud end-points and plug-ins.
Open Cloud Connectivity for IT
Informatica PowerCenter and PowerExchange are often used to handle complex business rules in real time and process very large volumes of data. For IT organizations that have already invested in the market-leading data integration technology from Informatica, these are options to deliver timely, relevant, and trustworthy data between cloud and on-premise systems. With the growth of SaaS applications in the enterprise, more and more organizations are also choosing to extend their Informatica implementations to new departments and and new users through self-service cloud-based data integration solutions for use cases such as application migration, syncrhonization, and replication.
