Overview

Informatica MDM is a master data management offering delivered on Informatica's Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) platform. It consolidates customer, product, supplier, reference and other critical business data scattered across ERP, CRM and other systems into unified "golden records" that give a single, trusted view of each entity.

The product is organised into a family of "360" applications -- Customer 360, Product 360, Supplier 360, Reference 360 and Finance 360 -- each preconfigured for a specific master data domain, plus multidomain and on-premises MDM options for organisations not yet on the cloud platform. Matching and merging of duplicate records uses deterministic (exact) and probabilistic (fuzzy) algorithms, with configurable survivorship rules to decide which source wins for each attribute, and CLAIRE (Informatica's AI/ML engine) assists with match-rule tuning and natural-language exploration of mastered data.

For ERP customers, Informatica MDM is typically deployed alongside or on top of systems like SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics to govern shared master data -- customer, vendor, product/material and reference/code data -- that would otherwise be duplicated and inconsistent across those systems, then to publish cleansed golden records back out to the ERP and to downstream applications such as Salesforce.

Centrally managing reference/code data (Reference 360) shared across multiple ERP instances
De-duplicating customer and vendor records inherited from mergers, acquisitions or legacy system consolidation
Extracting and mastering data from SAP via IDoc/BAPI/ODP connectors and publishing golden records back to SAP
Using CLAIRE AI to tune match/merge rules and explore mastered data via natural language

Informatica MDM — frequently asked questions

Does Informatica MDM integrate with SAP?

Yes. Informatica offers a SAP Connector that reads and writes SAP data via IDocs, BAPI/RFC or the ODP framework, plus published success-accelerator templates specifically for integrating MDM SaaS with SAP, so golden records can be synced bi-directionally with SAP systems.

What ERP systems does Informatica MDM connect to?

Informatica provides pre-built connectors for SAP, Oracle (including E-Business Suite), NetSuite and Microsoft Dynamics, as part of a broader library of 300-400+ pre-built connectors, plus a visual low-code builder for custom integrations.

How much does Informatica MDM cost?

Informatica does not publish list pricing for MDM. Pricing is quote-based and depends on the data domains licensed (Customer 360, Product 360, Supplier 360, etc.), number of mastered records, user counts, and whether you deploy on the cloud (subscription) or on-premises (perpetual license plus maintenance).

What is a golden record in Informatica MDM?

A golden record is the single, authoritative version of a data entity (such as a customer, product or supplier) produced by Informatica's match, merge and survivorship process, which identifies duplicate or related records across source systems and consolidates them into one trusted record.
