Overview
A machine-learning-based data catalog lets you classify and organize data assets across cloud, on-premises, and big data. It provides maximum value and reuse of data across your enterprise.
Enterprise-wide data discovery
Data is growing too fast for manual stewardship. To scale in step with enterprise data growth, Informatica provides a machine-learning-based data catalog and discovery engine that automatically scans data assets across the enterprise, catalogs them, and indexes those assets for enterprise-wide discovery.
Business context
Effective usage of data assets and data governance requires multi-persona collaboration. Informatica provides the ability to create business classifications and relate them to technical data assets as annotations. This dramatically improves discoverability and visibility of data assets.
Maximum discovery
Business analysts and data stewards don’t always know exactly what they are looking for. Informatica’s enhanced keyword searching with simple Google-like search, auto-complete, and search facets—based on data overlap, column similarity, and inferred domains—enable users to find the right data using their own words without having to know exactly what to look for.
Lower compliance risk
Effective data governance requires knowing what is happening with data in addition to what it is. Enterprise data map, detailed data profiling statistics, complete traceability of data movement with column/metric level lineage, as well as detailed impact analysis provide a 360-degree view of data assets for maximum compliance with controls and regulations.
