What is the News: Informatica, a leader in enterprise cloud data management, has introduced the new product innovations. The new products are designed to democratize generative AI across the enterprise with secure and immediate access to data insights. The product announcements made at the Informatica World event happening in Las Vegas include:
- Embed GenAI into every facet of data management with CLAIRE GPT
- Empower users to develop and deploy GenAI applications built on trusted data foundations
Significance of the news: Successful GenAI depends on effective data management with integrated, end-to-end solutions that deliver ‘Ready Data’ for personalized experiences, better automation, and accurate decisions. The data management market is fragmented, and this issue will worsen in 2024. Informatica’s recent survey of 600 global Chief Data Officers revealed that nearly 60% use five or more data management tools to manage their data estates.
“We anticipated the market direction more than four years before this current AI hype cycle with our CLAIRE solution, the backbone of our AI platform and products. With the infusion of GenAI into the very fabric of our cloud-only offerings, we’ve elevated the industry standard and leveraged the simplicity and intuitiveness of the technology to deliver actionable insights within seconds to our customers.” – ” said Amit Walia, CEO at Informatica.
About CLAIRE GPT
CLAIRE copilot will be infused across every bespoke Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) service. It will support natural language capabilities to make getting recommendations for data integration, application integration, data quality, and governance even easier.
In addition, it is the first GenAI-powered data management assistant grounded by enterprise metadata intelligence, leveraging core IDMC capabilities. Today, Informatica is the only data management leader focused on creating an organization-specific metadata system of record. CLAIRE GPT is currently available in North America.

Benefits of CLAIRE GPT for Metadata Integration:
- Democratize data access to help users find, access and interact with their data through an intuitive natural language interface
- Increase productivity through automation, time savings and efficiency gains
- Accelerate data-driven decisions with self-service exploration of data estates
- Data security and privacy through Informatica-hosted LLMs
- Enhanced CLAIRE GPT capabilities features such as multistep reasoning will break down complex data management operations into digestible tasks
- Self-Service for business users: Enable non-technical business users to find and understand data on their own by abstracting away the need for SQL
Benefits of IDMC’s Built-In Data Management for GenAI Applications:
- Democratize GenAI: Broaden the userbase that can create GenAI applications without extensive coding or programming knowledge. Cloud Application Integration has been updated to enable building no-code GenAI apps that support patterns like prompt engineering, RAG, and ReAct AI agents. It supports a wide range of popular LLMs and VectorDBs. Enterprise-grade scalability, SDLC and governance features.
- Ground GenAI applications: contextualize tools with trusted data and built-in security and governance. New capabilities for chunking, embedding, and ingestion into Vector DBs so that the LLMs can be contextualized/grounded on enterprise data.
- LLM agnostic: Futureproof by avoiding a reliance on a single LLM and easily navigating any model from hyperscalers to smaller providers with out-of-the-box LLM Connectors.
- Accelerate time to market: Leverage customizable templates, pre-built recipes and intuitive, drag-and-drop interfaces to kickstart prototyping, testing and deployment of new or existing applications.
- Unstructured data: IDMC will soon support sources like documents, images, and video, with full integration across IDMC (CDAM policies, DQ rules, catalog, integration pipelines, etc.). This will expand the metadata system of record to include unstructured data.
