Informatica Positioned 13 Consecutive Years as a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Informatica^®, the enterprise cloud data management leader, today announced that Gartner, Inc., a leading IT research and advisory firm, has positioned Informatica as a Leader in its 2018 Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools for the 13th consecutive year. This year's report marks the fifth year in a row that Gartner has positioned Informatica furthest on the completeness of vision axis and highest on ability to execute axis.

The complete report, including the Magic Quadrant graphic, was published on July 19, 2018, and is available at https://www.informatica.com/data-integration-magic-quadrant.html.

According to the Gartner report, "Data integration is a persistent practice that is not specifically focused on the market as it is today. The presence of legacy, resilient systems and innovation all in the same market, requires robust, consistent delivery of highly traditional practices as well as emerging or innovative approaches."

The report notes that, "The biggest change in the market in 2018 is the shift from an anticipated future demand for metadata-driven solutions to a current market expectation that these solutions will be delivered as part of the data integration platform. There is currently no forgiveness for inadequate metadata capabilities. Another major shift is customers asking for hybrid deployment (cloud and on-premises), as in 2017, but now with the expectation of multicloud and cloud-to-cloud integration."

Informatica offers the most comprehensive, modern and unified set of data integration solutions for unleashing the power of data for any enterprise data management need, including next-gen analytics, data governance, application modernization and real-time operational processes. Whether data is small or big, on-premises, or in the cloud or deployed on hybrid environments, the industry's most complete and modular Informatica Intelligent Data Platform, powered by the CLAIRE™ engine, takes away the complexity of accessing, transforming and unifying any type of data from disparate underlying sources, and delivering it to any business system or user at any latency. With Informatica, business teams can leverage easy to use, self-service tools to do more work in less time, while IT can deliver complete, trusted and actionable data in the timeframe the business requires to drive business agility.

Earlier this year, Informatica also was named as a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service, positioned furthest on the completeness of vision axis and highest on the ability to execute axis. The complete report, including the Magic Quadrant graphic, was published in April 2018, and is available at https://www.informatica.com/ipaas-magic-quadrant.html.
