REDWOOD CITY, Calif., August 8, 2005—Informatica Corporation (NASDAQ: INFA), a leading provider of data integration software, today announced that Boston Medical Center, a not-for-profit medical center and the primary teaching affiliate of Boston University's School of Medicine, has selected the Informatica PowerCenter data integration platform as the foundation for its clinical-outcomes measurement initiative. By integrating data from as many as 14 internal applications, PowerCenter will help the hospital accurately track and measure its performance in key areas such as disease management and patient safety, leading ultimately to more effective treatments and enhanced patient satisfaction.

“Boston Medical Center will be among today’s leading hospitals that are leveraging data integration technology to better assess medical outcomes and measure clinical performance,” said Meg Aranow, vice president and chief information officer at Boston Medical Center. “We selected Informatica PowerCenter after an extensive review of other available solutions. The broad data-access capabilities, as well as the scalability and performance attributes of PowerCenter, proved exceptional. We also saw that, due to its large and proven-successful installed base, Informatica has a solid labor market fluent with its products that we can draw on when implementing our solution.”

“While Boston Medical Center is an early adopter of enterprise data integration for clinical-outcomes measurement, there is growing public and financial pressure on all hospitals to move in this direction,” said John Entenmann, executive vice president of corporate strategy and marketing at Informatica. “Outcomes measurement has very exciting implications for public policy in healthcare, and we are pleased that such a prestigious institution as Boston Medical Center has selected Informatica to help spearhead its endeavors in this arena.”
