Overall Satisfaction with Informatica Cloud

Right now we are still in test phase. It is used for ETL from local server and AWS.

Pros

  • We like the fact that Informatica Cloud can connect to all on premise and cloud databases with TLS 1.2, which helps to ensure data transfer is secure.
  • I especially like the Mapping Designer which is easy to use and does the job efficiently.
  • Informatica Cloud's replication allow us to replicate data between load and cloud servers in near real time.

Cons

  • Coming from the Informatica PowerCenter world, IDE is different so it might take some time to get used to.
  • The error information seems less informative than PowerCenter.
  • Hopefully the tool can have online patch capability so that we can keep outages to minimum.
  • Existing ETL process can support cloud, which reduces training and rework
  • I am glad we do not have to pay big one time purchase for cloud
Informatica Cloud is designed to do ETL between on-premise and cloud servers. As organizations move certain parts (or all) of IT into cloud, there will be a long period of time in which both environments coexist. We use Informatica Power Center to do ETL in a local data center, I am glad we can do the same thing to cloud.
