Data management, business intelligence (BI) and software engineering specialist, EnterpriseWorx, has joined Informatica's worldwide INFORM partner programme.
The partnership will allow EnterpriseWorx to include Informatica Data Quality and Informatica Master Data Management products in its portfolio.
Michael De Andrade, EnterpriseWorx MD, says the partnership is a result of a lengthy due diligence process by EnterpriseWorx. "EnterpriseWorx is committed to delivering best-of-breed BI, data integration and software engineering solutions to our clients and we select our partners carefully," he says. "In Informatica's data integration solutions, we see world-leading, robust functionality and a proven product suite that will enable our clients to maximise their investments in the people, technologies and processes around data storage and management."
Data quality has become critical in maximising the value of big data, explains De Andrade. "Companies are pumping money into hardware and software in a bid to leverage data, but unless they can obtain an accurate and complete view of their data, they will not see a full return on their data centre and analytics investments."
The new elements in EnterpriseWorx's portfolio have seen healthy local interest, he notes. "EnterpriseWorx's clients are already showing great interest in what Informatica's solutions can deliver. Local companies are now committed to making data quality a priority issue.
"In South Africa, companies are viewing data as a strategic asset and competitive differentiator. As data proliferates, it will become increasingly important for companies to be able to access clean data and a single version of the truth in order to fully utilise that data. In addition, increasingly stringent governance and compliance demands mean clean and immediately accessible data is becoming even more important."
Informatica's solutions can help both medium-sized and large enterprises to maximise their data quality, a step that should be taken sooner rather than later, says De Andrade. "The sooner data quality becomes a focus in the business, the simpler and more cost-effective it is to ensure successful data management as the company grows. With the newest solution added to our portfolio, we believe we can enable enterprises to achieve the level of data management they need to maximise the value of their data."
