Informatica Launches Informatica 9

Informatica 9 is the First and Only Data Integration Platform to Enable Indian organizations with Business and IT Collaboration, Pervasive Data Quality and SOA-Based Data Services

Informatica Corporation (NASDAQ: INFA), the world’s number one independent provider of data integration software, today announced Informatica 9, the first data integration platform designed to enable the data-driven enterprise. Informatica 9 is the industry’s only comprehensive, unified and open data integration platform. Informatica 9 uniquely delivers a comprehensive platform by combining products in six categories: enterprise data integration, data quality, B2B data exchange, application information lifecycle management, complex event processing and cloud computing data integration. Informatica 9 is uniquely designed to be deployed on-premise or in the internet cloud.

In today’s information economy, data is absolutely critical for any business survival or business revival strategy. Relevant, trustworthy and timely data is the difference between the success and failure of top business imperatives. Yet, becoming a data-driven enterprise has remained an elusive goal for many organizations.

In order to become data-driven enterprises, Indian organizations face three daunting challenges: first, business users often cannot rely on IT alone for the most business-relevant information; second business users frequently do not regard the data to be trustworthy for their purposes; and third business users do not have timely access to the data in the appropriate form. Until now, these formidable challenges have often compromised the value of IT and impeded the most business-critical initiatives.

Informatica 9 uniquely helps organizations overcome these three challenges through business-IT collaboration, pervasive data quality and innovative SOA-based data services. Business-IT collaboration ensures that fit-for-purpose systems deliver the most business-relevant data. Pervasive data quality assures that all stakeholders can trust data for their business purposes. And, open SOA-based data services enable even more types of operational data integration projects to deliver timely data in the appropriate format. With these three breakthrough advances, Informatica 9 enables Indian organizations to become data-driven enterprises by delivering the most business-relevant, trustworthy and timely data.

“Informatica 9 is a comprehensive infrastructure platform with products across six different technology categories that are unified to reduce IT costs and open to leverage data on-premise and in the internet cloud,” said Sid Lasley Informatica Director, Alliances Asia Pacific. “India is a key market for us and we see a lot of potential for growth within this geography. With Informatica 9, our Indian customers can gain competitive advantage with the most relevant, trustworthy and timely data as mandated by their top business imperatives.”

More than 50 leading customers and partners from around the globe support the Informatica 9 announcement.

“Customers today are looking to gain a competitive advantage by understanding how they can truly transform their business by using data effectively across their organization,” said Mark Smith, CEO & Executive Vice President of Research, Ventana Research. “With the release of Informatica 9, the company is delivering a solution that is a breakthrough in how organizations can collaboratively work together across business and IT and use data as a core asset. Informatica is bridging these two organizations with collaborative data integration capabilities that reduce the time and cost to deliver data for a range of business needs.”
