Brocade Communications Systems

After using Salesforce to boost the productivity of its 300 global salespeople, Brocade, the leading provider of solutions and services for shared IT storage environments, realized the web-based application could also power its enterprise-wide data services framework. To make it happen, Brocade needed to integrate Salesforce seamlessly with its back-end systems.

Challenges

Implement data services framework atop enterprise data integration platform
Tightly integrate Salesforce with on-premise operational and analytic systems
Support master data management for cross-enterprise data consistency

Informatica PowerCenter is the standard for cross-enterprise data integration at Brocade.
