Salesforce to buy Informatica in $8 billion deal



“For Salesforce customers, this represents a major advancement. They can now seamlessly access and leverage all types of customer data—whether housed within Salesforce or external systems—in real time. This enhanced capability establishes a unified customer data fabric, delivering actionable insights across every channel and touchpoint,” Yuhanna said. “Critically, it accelerates Salesforce’s ability to deploy agentic AI, enabling low-code, low-maintenance AI that reduces complexity and dramatically shortens time to value.”

For Informatica customers, Yuhanna said, “the opportunity is equally appealing. This acquisition unlocks a faster path to agentic AI workloads, backed by the reach and power of the Salesforce ecosystem. As data management evolves, intelligent agents will automate core functions, turning traditionally time-consuming processes like data ingestion, integration, and pipeline orchestration into self-operating data workflows.”

“Tasks that once took days—or even weeks— will be executed with little to no human intervention,” Yuhanna said. “With a unified data, AI, and analytics platform, Informatica customers will benefit from accelerated innovation, greater operational agility, and significantly enhanced returns on their data investments.”
