Editor's Notes
- #8: Informatica Cloud Services and the Informatica Cloud Platform. Informatica Cloud Services are purpose-built integration services that address specific use cases – loading data, synchronizing data between systems, monitoring and assessing the quality of your data, and replicating data from one system to another (often from a SaaS app to an on-premise database for reporting or backup). Informatica Cloud Platform allows you to easily develop and share custom integration services that run in the cloud. And Informatica Cloud Editions and Options is really the ability for our customers to deploy their on-premise software in a hosted cloud environment – whether it’s a private or public cloud like Amazon.com.
