Salesforce has announced its acquisition of Informatica for $8 billion to bolster its AI capabilities. This integration aims to provide a more complete understanding of data, crucial for developing autonomous AI agents. Salesforce's President and CTO, Steve Fisher, highlighted how the merger will enhance businesses' ability to automate complex processes and improve decision-making through clearer data context. The acquisition has received approval from both companies' boards and Informatica's shareholders, with closure expected in early 2026, pending regulatory approval.
Truly autonomous, trustworthy AI agents need the most comprehensive understanding of their data. The combination of Informatica's advanced catalog and metadata capabilities with our Agentforce platform delivers exactly this.
Imagine an AI agent that goes beyond simply seeing data points to understanding their full context - origin, transformation, quality, and governance. This clarity, from a unified Salesforce and Informatica solution, will allow all types of businesses to automate more complex processes and make more reliable AI-driven decisions.
