Informatica’s World-Class Customer Base Tops 2,000

USDA and Tarleton State University select Informatica's market-leading data integration software

REDWOOD CITY, Calif, June 1, 2004—Informatica Corporation (NASDAQ: INFA), a leading provider of data integration software, today announced a license agreement with the Center for Agribusiness Excellence (CAE) at Tarleton State University, bringing the company's marquee customer base to 2,000 customers. The CAE at Tarleton State, a member of the Texas A&M University System, will use Informatica's enterprise data integration software to consolidate data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Risk Management Agency to support national crop-insurance analysis.

CAE's manual data integration process currently takes eight days, during which approximately 10 gigabytes of data are loaded, verified, cleansed and integrated into a data warehouse. Using Informatica PowerCenter, CAE plans to reduce that timeframe to three days, while greatly reducing the chance for error.

"Informatica provides what is widely considered to be the de facto standard for data integration software," said Paul Albright, executive vice president and chief marketing officer at Informatica. "Informatica helps market leaders in nearly every major industry to implement strategic initiatives such as data migration, synchronization, consolidation and warehousing. We are very pleased to welcome Tarleton State to the ever-growing Informatica ecosystem of customers, partners and developers."
