| According to Enterprise Systems Journal, harried data management professionals may get a much-needed break, thanks to Informatica's acquisition of Applimation, an enterprise data management software provider for Oracle and SAP platforms.
With special expertise on metadata, Applimation offers tools for data archiving and data migration. Informatica claims that the acquisition creates a one-stop shop for application-focused information lifecycle management. Gartner's Ted Friedman and Carolyn DiCenzo say, "Applimation's solutions will enable Informatica to address its customers' data life cycle management requirements, as part of the broader data management discipline." While there is a question of redundancy between the two companies, Adam Wilson, VP of product management and marketing at Informatica, says it's a non-issue. "From a connectivity perspective, Informatica has a broader set of connectivity than Applimation had as a standalone company, so we can connect to more things." http://www.itbusinessedge.com/cm/community/news/bi/blog/informatica-aquisition-may-be-answer-for-harried-data-management-pros/?cs=31122
