Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) Drives Innovation in the Middle East

Informatica^® (NYSE:INFA), an enterprise cloud data management leader, today announced the winners of its customer innovation awards at the Informatica World Tour Dubai. The Middle East region is a fast-growing market for the company, with customers like Saudi Airlines, Abu Dhabi Ports Group, and Mujid Al Futtaim relying on Informatica’s cloud platform, Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC), to accelerate their digital transformation.

Gartner research predicts that cloud spending in MENA is expected to grow 19.2% in 2022 to $5.7 billion, demonstrating the region’s appetite for digital transformation. The ability to properly manage and leverage data is critical to delivering successful transformation projects, yet with data volumes increasing exponentially and over 79% of organizations using more than 100 data sources, complexity and fragmentation are one of the modern enterprises' biggest challenges. Informatica’s Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) enables enterprises to manage and innovate with data on any platform, any cloud, for any user in multi-cloud and multi-hybrid environments.

IDMC delivers mission-critical solutions that serve our global customers and operates at a significant scale, processing 38.5 trillion cloud transactions per month as of June 2022. It empowers enterprises to innovate and build new products and services, to build new customer engagement models and experiences, and to innovate and operate more efficiently.

At the Informatica World Tour Dubai event, Informatica honored customers’ success in driving data-led digital transformations and intelligent data innovations.
