Informatica announced at Snowflake's annual user conference, Snowflake Data Cloud Summit 2024, Native SQL ELT support for Snowflake Cortex AI Functions, the launch of Enterprise Data Integrator (EDI) and Cloud Data Access Management (CDAM) for Snowflake. These new offerings on the Snowflake AI Data Cloud will enable organizations to develop Generative AI (GenAI) applications, establish streamlined data integration and provide a centralized, policy-based access management, simplifying data governance and ensuring control over data usage. New capabilities include: Native SQL ELT for Cortex AI Functions now supports new GenAI capabilities following the recent launch of Native SQL ELT for Snowflake at Informatica's recent conference, Informatica World.

In addition to the 250 Native Snowflake functions initially supported, Native SQL ELT now supports Cortex AI Native GenAI functions. With this new integration, Informatica's Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) customers can incorporate Cortex AI Functions as part of their IDMC no-code data integration and data engineering pipelines running natively on the Snowflake AI Data cloud. Enterprise Data Integrator (ED I) establishes Informatica as one of the first ISV Partners to provide a fully functional Snowflake Native App.

Leveraging a Streamlit in Snowflake built user interface and Snowpipe Streaming, EDI seamlessly integrates Snowflake Native App framework for quicker discovery and data loading. It seamlessly combines data access control with classification, discovery and cataloging tools, leveraging metadata to automate processes. With an intuitive policy authoring interface, it simplifies enterprise-wide data access management.

Fully integrated with Cloud Data Integration and Cloud Data Marketplace, it offers automated contextual controls on data usage and sharing. By leveraging the Snowflake AI Data Cloud, Informatica is joining Snowflake in mobilizing the world's data to help organizations to build fast and secure data pipelines for new Generative AI applications.
