Informatica has announced the Summer 2025 release of its Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) platform. The update brings a range of AI-powered data management features aimed at enhancing enterprise access to AI-ready data.
The company revealed that the latest release strengthens capabilities across data integration, governance, data quality, master data management, and iPaaS.

New connectors have been added for NVIDIA NIM, Databricks Mosaic AI, and Snowflake Cortex AI. Users can now access a Recipe Marketplace to share reusable workflow templates for both AI and business automation.
Governance capabilities have also been expanded. Informatica has launched an AI Governance Inventory within IDMC to track AI models, datasets, and approvals. The release also includes real-time data quality checks through REST APIs and AI-powered lineage discovery to support faster deployment.
Krish Vitaldevara, Chief Product Officer at Informatica, stated that the new release delivers what customers need to scale their AI efforts: trusted data, simplified governance, and seamless integration.
