Increase the Business Value of Data
Informatica 9.5 positions your organization to increase the business value of data with technologies for real-time data streaming, proactive monitoring, pervasive data privacy, data governance, and more. For example, a data timeline for social master data management (MDM) creates a complete 4D view of the customer to improve acquisition and retention. Informatica 9.5 helps you realize the ideal of data that is timely, actionable, accessible, relevant, holistic, secure, trustworthy, and authoritative.
Lower the Cost of Data
Informatica 9.5 lowers the cost of data in multiple ways, bringing down business, labor, software, hardware, and storage expenses. For example, data validation helps prevent bad business decisions by eliminating bad data. Smart partitions reduce storage, infrastructure, and maintenance costs as part of a comprehensive information lifecycle management solution.
Realize the Promise of Big Data
As a unified platform, Informatica 9.5 helps your organization not merely cope with big data but also realize its promise to power a smarter, faster business. Native Hadoop support gives developers out-of-the-box transforms for parsing, profiling, matching, cleansing, and identity resolution, optimized for Hadoop. A visual development environment enables users who are not experts to deploy to Hadoop, reusing existing skills and assets and readily unleashing the power of Hadoop.
Conquering the Big Data Challenge
Big data is an inexorable force, driving organizations to adopt breakthrough approaches to IT while aligning their existing processes and infrastructure to new realities. Capitalizing on the business value of big data requires a comprehensive, unified, and open data integration platform.
