In this paper, we discuss Informatica’s Intelligent Data Platform and, in particular, its data governance capabilities. Our evaluation is centred around three products – Axon, Enterprise Information Catalog, and Secure@Source – that form the bulk of the platform’s data governance offering. Each of these has a specific capability: Axon provides data quality monitoring, and consequently organisational understanding; Enterprise Information Catalog is a data catalogue; and Secure@Source focuses on data security and privacy. Although we touch briefly on other products available on the platform, they are incidental to the topic at hand and are not discussed in detail.
