June 2, 2006 - At its annual conference, Informatica made a series of announcements focused on the challenges posed by outsourcing initiatives and the massive decentralization of business data across the world. The need for on-demand data integration is becoming clear as businesses seek to integrate views of information, satisfy regulatory compliance requirements and begin other data management initiatives. Informatica announced that it will partner with salesforce.com to provide on-demand data integration as part of salesforce’s AppExchange online service.
This intensified interest in on-demand data integration is timely. Many organizations now operate in a distributed fashion, outsourcing IT functions and business processes and using hosted SaaS to store and access employee, product, customer and even financial data across the world. Ventana Research estimates the current market for business process outsourcing (BPO) and SaaS at substantially more than $70 billion. Informatica has announced new capabilities available in Informatica PowerCenter 8.1 and plans upcoming releases of on-demand solutions in the fourth quarter of this year and on-demand platform advances in the first quarter of 2007.
