Informatica Cloud Integration

DI in the cloud

 
Informatica Cloud Data Integration consists of a portfolio of solutions designed to integrate data in the cloud with on-premise databases or applications.

• Software as a Service (SaaS) data integrations applications – ideal for self-service users needing to load, synchronise, replicate and profile cloud-based data
• Platform as a Service (PaaS) functionality to allow developers to build complex data integration processes and publish them as Cloud Services
• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) data integration and data archiving allows IT departments to utilise almost unlimited server and storage resources without the cost of on-premise infrastructure

Agile Solutions can help you decide which of the Informatica Cloud Data Integration solutions would suit your organisation.

Product features

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Informatica Cloud Services is based “in the cloud” and is a quick and easy-to-use solution for integrating cloud-based applications e.g. Salesforce.com with on-premise databases and applications.

Informatica Cloud Services is quick to set up and administer for non-technical users.

Key capabilities of Informatica Cloud Services are:

• Data Replication - allow SaaS administrators to easily automate the replication or archiving of data in cloud-based applications to on-premise databases, csv files, or spreadsheets
• Data Synchronisation – powerful bi-directional data loading and extraction between cloud and on-premise systems, coupled with advanced scheduling functionality
• Rapid connection to a wide range of cloud-based and on-premise databases and applications
• Data Quality – measure and monitor data quality in key objects within Salesforce.com
• Data Loader for Salesforce.com – integration service for the automation of loading and extraction between Salesforce.com, databases and flat files

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

Informatica Cloud Platform opens up the power of the Informatica data integration platform to the cloud.

The Informatica Cloud Platform consists of:
