Informatica, an enterprise cloud data management vendor, launched its Intelligent Data Management Cloud, IDMC in the Middle East, a first for the region. The investment includes establishing a new Point of Delivery, PoD in Abu Dhabi UAE. The PoD further solidifies Informatica’s presence in the Middle East and reflects its commitment to support local, scalable cloud-first data management services.
The investment underpins Informatica’s commitment to the UAE government’s vision. In GITEX 2022, Informatica signed a multi-year, strategic framework agreement with Abu Dhabi Digital Authority, to support its Data Enablement Programme to offer data management services to government entities in Abu Dhabi.
This investment reflects a commitment to expand regional data management services and support local government and businesses.
This aims to transform Abu Dhabi into a data-driven state to drive economic growth and accelerate the digital economy across the Emirate. With a regional PoD, Informatica can better support local partners and organisations with its cloud data management platform in line with local regulations.
Commenting on the announcement, Jitesh Ghai, Chief Product Officer, Informatica said: “With the launch of our first IDMC Pod in the Middle East, Informatica and its regional partners will enable customers to unlock the value of their data while ensuring that it remains secure, well-governed, and in the region if necessary.”
“This region astounds with the speed and capacity for growth it consistently displays, and to that end, we look forward to supporting the UAE government’s strategic goals and vision related to data democracy.”
