Exeros announces Alliance with Informatica
Innovator of Data Relationship Discovery and Transformation Software helps customers migrate from hand-coded data integration processes to Informatica PowerCenter platform
SANTA CLARA, May 15, 2006 – Exeros™, Inc., the leader in automated data relationship discovery, today announced the signing of a teaming partner agreement with Informatica Corporation (NASDAQ: INFA), a leading provider of data integration software. The two companies’ products offer complementary functionality and provide unique opportunities for organizations to migrate their legacy, hand-coded data integration processes to a commercially supported data integration platform.
Exeros’ flagship product, Exeros DataMapper,™ automates the discovery of business rules and complex transformations between datasets and, using a specially designed interface, generates Informatica PowerCenter® mappings. The automated nature of this process drives the migration of hand-coded data integration processes to Informatica’s data integration platform in a fraction of the time and cost than can be achieved through manual means.
“Exeros has partnered with Informatica to give customers a fast, affordable path to convert hand-coded data integration into PowerCenter mappings.” said Todd Goldman, vice president of marketing, Exeros. "PowerCenter provides a much lower ongoing cost of maintenance compared to hand-coded data integration. With an automated approach to re-coding the existing business rules and transformations, the cost of migration to a commercial data integration platform can be significantly lower.”
“As companies increasingly recognize the hidden costs, complexities and compliance risks associated with hand-coded data connections, they are looking for ways to quickly convert hand-coded scripts into standard PowerCenter data mappings. In doing this, they create a more flexible data management infrastructure while reducing the management and maintenance costs of legacy connections. Exeros DataMapper’s capabilities find even the most obscure transformations in legacy environments and make it easy for our customers to extend the use of PowerCenter throughout the enterprise,” said Mike Pickett, vice president of alliances, Informatica.
Exeros developed its DataMapper solution to map data and discover data relationships the same way data analysts do in the real world – by examining data values. Exeros DataMapper software analyzes the actual data, not just the metadata, and identifies the “hidden” relationships between data residing in disparate databases and applications. The Exeros approach delivers more comprehensive and accurate data mappings, while providing guided analysis and an intuitive and familiar graphical interface to the analysts.
The importance of data mapping solutions is evidenced by Exeros’ recent recognition as a “Cool Vendor” by Gartner, Inc. Gartner defines a cool vendor as a company that offers technologies or solutions that are: innovative; enable users to do things they couldn’t do before; and that have, or will have a business impact.
