Informatica introduced the only free AI tool

According to an article from Duncan MacRae for AInews.com, enterprise cloud data management expert Informatica has introduced Informatica Cloud Data Integration-Free and PayGo, the only free cloud data loading, integration, and ETL/ELT solution in the market.

The new service targets non-technical users in marketing, sales, and revenue operations teams that need to quickly develop data pipelines. It offers operations teams, for instance, a quick, cost-free, and painless solution to load, integrate, and analyze high-quality campaign, pipeline, forecast, and revenue data. Also, enhanced productivity and quick growth are advantageous to data analysts and data engineers.

The debut of Informatica Data Loader in May 2022 marked the start of a sequence of releases that includes this one. The only free data loading and integration solutions in the market are Informatica Data Loader, Cloud Data Integration-Free (CDI-Free), and PayGo (CDI-PayGo). For all of your data-driven use cases, they are natively integrated to offer intelligent cloud data management services. All of the main data warehouse/lake systems, including Amazon Redshift, Azure Synapse, Databricks Delta Lake, Google BigQuery, and Snowflake, are supported by Informatica CDI-Free, CDI-PayGo, and Data Loader.

Informatica's chief product officer, Jitesh Ghai, stated: "By making data integration software free, user-friendly, and available to everyone, we are revolutionizing the data integration industry. Organizations struggle with the difficulty of consuming massive amounts of data from many sources and then interpreting that data. In order to immediately start servicing both business-focused data engineers and non-technical business users and analysts, there is an obvious demand for no setup and no coding SaaS data integration solutions that are free and pay-as-you-go.

Organizations may empower the general public with data if they provide business and non-technical users with access to straightforward, affordable data integration solutions.

Offering self-service data integration to users in technical and business positions across the organization is the secret to a fully data-driven corporation. Only that is offered by PayGo and Informatica CDI-Free.

Users of the free CDI-Free service can process up to 20 million rows for ELT or ten processing hours for ETL each month, whichever comes first.

CDI-PayGo: All the features of CDI-Free with no restrictions on the number of rows processed or use hours. Essential customer support and SOC2 compliance are included with CDI-PayGo. In addition, consumers only use their credit cards to pay for what they really use.

Consumers gain from simple setup and utilization of these AI-powered automation services for data integration without the requirement for coding or DevOps. Also, each of Informatica's ecosystem partners, including Amazon Web Services, Databricks, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Snowflake, may simply use the cloud data loading and integration ETL/ELT services.

A crucial competitive advantage is the capacity to harness the power of data, according to Chris Eldredge, Paycor's VP of data office.

The correct data integration platform makes it possible to build a data foundation that fosters creativity, insight, and agility for better business outcomes. The newly released Cloud Data Integration (CDI)-Free and PayGo solutions make it easier to begin integrating data. More data professionals, especially tech-savvy business users, will be able to access Informatica's best-in-class data integration solutions thanks to these new offerings.

Cloud Data Integration (CDI)-Free and PayGo are launchpads that will advance and benefit people joining the data integration area, according to Matt Wienke, CEO of Infoverity. The navigation and usage of the tools are simple and intuitive. Tech-savvy corporate customers will be enabled by CDI-Free to start migrating their data to the cloud without having to commit to any software fees. Moreover, the ability to upgrade to Informatica's enterprise-grade cloud platform reduces risks associated with testing and implementing these solutions.
