Informatica Introduces Data Replication Solutions

Informatica Corporation, the data integration software provider, now offers Universal Data Replication through the expansion of its existing product portfolio, giving customers more options to meet their diverse business continuity, big data and operational data integration needs.

Data replication is the process of real-time data sharing to ensure consistency between redundant database resources to improve reliability, fault-tolerance, latency and accessibility. A part of the Informatica Platform, Informatica’s new data replication technology includes Informatica Fast Clone which automates the cloning of application data and Informatica Data Replication which manages the capture, routing and delivery of high-volume transaction data across diverse systems in real time with minimal source system impact.

In the big data arena, high-speed cloning and replication of big transaction data into new-generation analytic appliances including EMC Greenplum, HP Vertica, IBM Netezza and Teradata will help customers more rapidly derive business value from the exploding volumes of data in today’s transactional systems such as IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL, Oracle and legacy databases. Additional use cases include faster, less costly database migrations with zero downtime, mirroring of operational data for continual access during maintenance and upgrade cycles, active data warehousing with more up-to-date information, and live transactional auditing with a full audit trail of every transaction event.
