Endeca Technologies, Inc., a search applications company, today announced a partnership with Informatica to OEM PowerCenter and PowerExchange from Informatica Corporation, the world’s number one independent provider of data integration software. Endeca will integrate Informatica’s PowerCenter and PowerExchange, part of the industry-leading Informatica Platform, with the McKinley release of the Endeca Information Access Platform. Together, these technologies provide a complete solution for unifying data from databases, warehouses, and enterprise business systems with content from product lifecycle management (PLM) and enterprise content management (ECM) systems, providing greater visibility across disparate information for improved daily decision-making.

“Business professionals and IT groups alike increasingly look for applications that create a single view of information across a broad variety of relevant sources,” said Hadley Reynolds, director, search & digital marketplace technologies, IDC. “IDC has identified this trend as unified access to information, and we project that the software that provides these composite views will become a core element in tomorrow’s enterprise infrastructure. Alliances like this one between Endeca and Informatica will accelerate the development and adoption of applications that blend structured and unstructured information to give the business a better handle on decision-making.”
