Informatica Cloud 101: Fast Track to Integration with Intuit

Editor's Notes

  • #4 So what is Informatica Cloud Integration and how does it relate to PowerCenter, the on-premise data integration product that you’re familiar with? With Informatica Cloud, instead of accessing the User Interface through a client, you login through the internet to design your mappings. Instead of having an on-premise database to store your metadata repository, this information can be stored in the cloud and accessible anywhere there’s an internet connection. And the execution engine is performed by a lightweight secure agent that you download onto your desktop or server.
  • #5 Key Concept: Informatica Cloud delivers and optimized architecture for Cloud to on-premise integration, also providing cloud-to-cloud and on-premise-to-on-premise integration.Users connect to Informatica’s multi-tenant cloud serviceIf first time use, download our secure agent, built using INFA’s market leading PowerCenter integration technology engineData then moves through the agent directly between on-premise systems and Cloud systems.More details here: http://www.informaticacloud.com/products/architecture-and-security.htmlBenefits include data does not move through the INFA cloud avoiding security and latency concerns and requires no on-premise IT infrastructure.The agent can be deployed anywhere that has access to the data sources including on-premise and in the Cloud. Thus, the cloud service can be used for Cloud to On-prem, Cloud-to-Cloud, and On-prem – to – On-prem integration.
  • #6 There are several integration use cases for SaaS apps that involve on-premise apps and databases.
  • #13 As you can see, we have a breadth of out-of-the-boxconnectivity to several on-premise systems.
  • #16 Intuit software company that develops financial and tax preparation software and related services for small businesses, accountants and individuals.• Most of unmet platform needs were with SaaS providers integrating with on-premise and other SaaS offerings• Quick deployment needed to be able to deploy to production for tax season (4 months from concept to production)
