Why Informatica and Why Now?
Digital data is now the new currency of the globalized marketplace and it is growing at exponential rates. In fact, IDC research shows that digital information has grown from 281 exabytes in 2007 to over 1,800 exabytes now in 2011. That's a compound annual growth rate of almost 60%. How effectively an organization can find that data, use it, and trust it, is the key to surviving and thriving in the face of macroeconomic conditions and competitive threats. Unfortunately, this is a considerable problem for many organizations as their data is fragmented throughout various enterprise applications and platforms. When (or if) the data is connected, it is usually done on a case-by-case, project-by-project basis, which results in a tangle of interfaces that are difficult to manage and easy to break.
What Does All This Mean?
It means that unless organizations find a better way to manage and leverage their data assets, the situation is only going to get worse as the volumes and complexities increase. How can IT departments pull it all together to make sense — so it works for their business to drive improvements in efficiencies, certainty and advantage? And to do it faster, more effectively and at a lower cost? The answer is Informatica.
