 "NetSuite, Informatica Partner To Deliver Cloud Two-Tier ERP Solution")
NetSuite Inc., the provider of cloud-based financials / ERP software suites, and Informatica, the independent data integration software provider, have announced a strategic partnership to deliver a cloud computing-based solution for deploying two-tier ERP systems.
Combining Informatica’s enterprise data integration with NetSuite’s cloud ERP suites, companies can extend and enhance their on-premise enterprise systems with cloud-based ERP solutions for their regional subsidiaries and divisions. Informatica Cloud integrates data processed by NetSuite OneWorld at the division or department level with on-premise systems, such as SAP R/3 and Oracle Applications at the enterprise level.
With two-tier ERP, enterprises can set up new global divisions and subsidiaries quickly while still leveraging the existing investment in the company’s on-premise enterprise ERP solution. With a two-tier ERP infrastructure, the existing SAP or Oracle system serves as the hub at the enterprise level and is augmented with cloud ERP solutions such as NetSuite OneWorld, at the subsidiary or divisional level. Informatica’s cloud data integration solution enables integration between the on-premise enterprise system and cloud divisional systems.
“Data Integration is increasingly critical to seamlessly augment existing on-premise systems with modern cloud computing services,” said Sohaib Abbasi, CEO, Informatica. “With two-tier ERP, enabled by Informatica data integration, enterprises get the best of both worlds: leveraging the scale of existing enterprise systems with the agility of cloud ERP for divisions to quickly pursue new market opportunities. Informatica Cloud enables data migration and data synchronisation between the cloud and on-premise systems.”
“Our partnership combines two best-in-class solutions to bring cloud ERP to the enterprise. CIO’s in the world’s largest companies now have the tools they need to build an enterprise class hub and spoke strategy that enables them to dramatically reduce their IT costs by standardising on cloud ERP,” said Zach Nelson, CEO, NetSuite. “With NetSuite and Informatica, organisations can standardise on the cloud and retain the power and value of their existing systems, at a fraction of the implementation time of a wholesale IT overhaul, and with a much higher degree of success.”
