Salesforce acquires Informatica for $8 billion


Salesforce plans to utilize Informatica's data management infrastructure as architecture for its AI agents.

The announcement, made Tuesday, comes about a year after early rumors of the acquisition sent both companies’ stock prices sliding. “Together, we’ll supercharge Agentforce, Data Cloud, Tableau, MuleSoft, and Customer 360, enabling autonomous agents to act with intelligence, context, and confidence across every enterprise,” Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff said in the press release. “This is a transformational step in delivering enterprise-grade AI that is safe, responsible, and deeply integrated with the world’s data.”
