Informatica Accelerates Cloud Modernization Journey with PowerCenter Cloud Edition
Media Alert, REDWOOD CITY, Calif., September 19, 2023 – Following the private preview earlier this year, PowerCenter Cloud Edition is now generally available. PowerCenter Cloud Edition enables the conversion of customers’ on-premises PowerCenter workloads to the cloud (Intelligent Data Management Cloud) and includes a trio of new cloud-native services:
- Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC): allows customers to run on-premises PowerCenter workloads as cloud workloads in a PowerCenter-compatible mode without the need to migrate any metadata or business logic.
- Customers can significantly accelerate time to value receiving cloud benefits such as automated updates, real-time security fixes, and reduced overheads associated with legacy software operations.
- Customers can manage their PowerCenter deployment as well as cloud deployment through a single cloud control plane.
- PowerCenter to Cloud Data Integration Self-Service (PC2CDI): allows customers to convert and transform PowerCenter assets for cloud-native pattern.
- With 95% AI-driven automation, customers can re-use their years of investment in PowerCenter and convert the business logic to cloud native and modern ELT and ETL paradigm supporting their modern data warehouse and analytics initiatives.
- Customers can modernize at their own pace allowing them complete flexibility to use any IDMC cloud-native service with a consumption-based pricing (IPU) model.
- Cloud Data Validation (CDV): allows customers to validate metadata conversion accuracy.
- CDV quickly identifies data anomalies and validate metadata conversion accuracy at the data level ensuring successful migration.
- CDV helps reduce post conversion efforts involving user acceptance, pre-production and production testing.
