Databricks Partner Connect
Informatica (NYSE: INFA), an enterprise cloud data management
leader, today announced an expanded partnership with Databricks
with new product capabilities and offerings, bringing together the
full range of Informatica’s AI-powered Intelligent Data Management
Cloud (IDMC) platform capabilities within the Databricks Data
Intelligence Platform. The expanded partnership will enable
customers to deploy enterprise-grade Generative AI (GenAI)
applications at scale, based on a foundation of high-quality,
trusted data and metadata.
The expanded partnership includes four new capabilities:
- GenAI Solution Blueprint for Databricks DBRX -
Informatica’s GenAI blueprint for Databricks provides a roadmap for
customers to develop Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)-based
GenAI applications using Databricks DBRX. Databricks DBRX is an
open, general-purpose large language model (LLM) designed to enable
users to develop enterprise-grade GenAI applications. The blueprint
allows customers to build RAG-based GenAI solutions, leveraging
Informatica’s IDMC no-code/low-code interface and metadata-driven
intelligence and Databricks Vector Database for embedding data,
enabling access to trusted and actionable data insights at scale.
Key benefits of the blueprint include:
- Grounding of generative AI application inferencing and
summaries with enterprise data providing high-fidelity, trusted
responses.
- Enrichment of prompts with comprehensive enterprise data and
metadata to ensure prompts and responses are contextualized based
on the unique industry and organizational semantics.
- Integration of data quality metrics to prioritize data set
selection for grounding to ensure GenAI applications are based on
trusted data.
- No-code orchestration and definition of RAG chain and
agent-based GenAI applications ensuring customers can rapidly
develop, maintain and scale GenAI applications.
- Comprehensive data governance to provide transparency and trust
in GenAI applications by enforcing data access and use policies to
deliver enterprise-compliant applications.
- Native Databricks SQL ELT – Native SQL ELT will enable
users to perform in-database transformations with full pushdown
capabilities on Databricks SQL, the intelligent data warehouse,
leveraging native Databricks functions, such as the AI-powered
Assistant, and serverless compute. This will allow customers to
develop ETL pipelines to run on Databricks compute for AI-optimized
performance, scalable data transformations and integrations.
- Cloud Data Integration-Free Service (CDI-Free) on Databricks
Partner Connect - Informatica’s CDI-Free offering is now
available via Databricks Partner Connect, giving customers quick
and easy access to Informatica’s cloud data ingestion and
transformation capabilities at no cost. CDI-Free via Partner
Connect offers users ELT processing of up to 20 million rows of
data or 10 ELT compute hours per month for free.
- Full IDMC Support via Unity Catalog - The Informatica
IDMC platform is now fully validated with Databricks Unity Catalog,
a unified governance layer for data and AI within the Databricks
platform. The integration with Unity Catalog includes all critical
IDMC services and greatly enhances Informatica’s ability to manage
data lineage and governance on the IDMC Platform.
“We are excited to expand our innovation and collaboration with
Databricks with complete support for Unity Catalog and our enhanced
comprehensive GenAI solution blueprint,” said Amit Walia, Chief
Executive Officer at Informatica. “Together, we can deliver an
AI-powered foundation for data management and data intelligence in
the cloud to accelerate our joint customers into the era of GenAI
with truly transformative applications.”
“At KPMG, we are thrilled about the new product offerings and
innovations from Informatica and their inclusion in Databricks
Partner Connect. This partnership enables us to leverage
cutting-edge technologies from both market leaders to drive
innovation and deliver tangible business value not only to our
internal IT but also to the solutions offered to our clients,”
said Dennis Tally, Managing Director at KPMG. “With
Informatica's leading AI-powered data management solutions
integrated seamlessly into the Databricks ecosystem, we can
accelerate our data-driven initiatives, build trusted AI models and
unlock actionable insights at scale. We look forward to further
collaboration with Informatica and Databricks to drive digital
transformation and help our clients thrive in today's data-driven
world."
“In the era of GenAI, access to trusted, high-quality data is
becoming more essential than ever, especially for RAG
implementations,” said Adam Conway, SVP of Products at
Databricks. “The addition of Informatica’s low-code/no-code
CDI-Free solution to Databricks Partner Connect, plus the
integration of IDMC with Unity Catalog and new analytical data
metadata exploration capabilities for RAG-based GenAI, accelerates
access to high-quality data for customers building AI solutions and
applications on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform.”
