Dell Services and Informatica Corporation today announced a relationship to provide technology and business solutions to help customers take advantage of Information Lifecycle Management
(ILM), Master Data Management (MDM) and Big Data.
Both firms will leverage each other’s capabilities to deliver a combination of technology and business expertise to help customers in healthcare and financial services achieve and maintain
consistent, accurate, shared data across critical domains.
As a part of the pact, Dell will enter Informatica’s Global System Integrators Alliance Program, which is a globally recognized group of select consulting companies that provide joint
investment, deep and proven delivery capabilities, and executive commitment to the Informatica product line, including the Informatica Intelligent Data Platform, on a worldwide scale.
“At Dell Services, we’re focused on our customers’ future and how IT can help them get to where they need to go to achieve their business goals, as well as actively listening to understand
our customers’ needs and business environment,” said Suresh Vaswani, President – Services, Dell. “It’s with this in mind that we continue to expand our business intelligence offerings, and
this partnership with Informatica is an important part of that effort.”

This is the next step in the continued collaboration between the two companies over the past few years, and Dell has significant experience in delivering solutions on the Informatica product
suite, ranging from ILM, Enterprise Data Integration, Data Quality, MDM and Big Data.
The relationship with Informatica is an extension of the Dell Services Business Innovation portfolio, which includes a full suite of social media, business intelligence, and analytics, mobility and cloud application services.
“Big Data and analytics today are occupying a prominent place on our customers’ business agenda,” said Raman Sapra, Global head, Business Innovation Services, Dell. “This relationship with Informatica is one more step that allows us to address operational as well as future business intelligence and analytics requirements for our customers as part of our Business Innovation
portfolio of offerings.”
Dell continues to strengthen capabilities in these areas to deliver digital transformation to customers, including users of Dell’s own technology. The alliance complements Dell’s existing
Information Management solutions such as the recently announced acquisition of StatSoft, a leading provider of advanced analytics solutions that deliver a wide range of data mining,
predictive analytics and data visualization capabilities.
According to recently Dell commissioned research of mid market executives, 89 percent of respondents with a big data initiative in progress report significant improvements in company
decision-making. 80 percent of survey respondents agree that they need to better analyse their rapidly expanding data collections. Among their top goals: improve product quality, seize
business opportunities and speed decision-making.
“The common vision that Dell and Informatica share in the vertical markets will benefit our joint customers as we deliver the promise of Big Data,” said Brad Kern, Senior Vice President,
Worldwide Alliances, Informatica. “Having Dell join our Global System Integrators Alliance is a great addition to the program.This collaboration will help uncover the many synergistic opportunities that exist between the two companies and ultimately benefit customers by helping them gain a competitive advantage in today’s global information economy.”
