Salesforce, the world’s leading AI CRM, announced that Salesforce completes Informatica acquisition, finalizing its purchase of Informatica, a market leader in enterprise AI-powered cloud data management. The acquisition brings iInformatica’s rich data catalog, integration, governance, quality, and privacy, metadata management, and Master Data Management (MDM) services to the Salesforce platform, establishing a unified and comprehensive data foundation for agentic AI and enabling AI agents to operate safely, responsibly, and at scale across the modern enterprise.
“You have to get your data right to get your AI right,” stated Marc Benioff, Salesforce’s Chairman and CEO. “Data and context are the fundamental fuel of Agentforce; without clean, connected, reliable data, there is no intelligence – only illusion. Informatica is a trusted platform that transforms fragmented organizational data into context, allowing every agent to reason, act, and deliver results with accuracy. When firms get their data correct, their AI improves, and Agentforce becomes unstoppable.”
Salesforce President and Chief Product Officer Steve Fisher stated, “With Informatica, we will deliver a governed and complete data platform that powers more intelligent, contextual, and autonomous experiences across Agentforce 360 – the trusted system connecting humans and AI agents in the enterprise.”
Enhancing the Agentforce 360 Experience
The acquisition greatly improves Salesforce’s platform by:
Achieving Data Clarity with Data 360: Informatica will improve Data 360 by ensuring that data from several enterprises is not only unified but also clear, trustworthy, and actionable.
Delivering Full Integration with MuleSoft: a market leader in application integration and API management, will join with Informatica’s strong data integration and governance capabilities to develop a comprehensive, end-to-end integration platform that enables customers to unlock all enterprise data and systems for the AI era.
Elevating Agentforce 360 Platform: Informatica and Salesforce will collaborate to offer a vital data foundation for autonomous AI agents to comprehend and act on trusted data.
Furthermore, the acquisition will leverage Salesforce’s distinct metadata advantage, the objects, fields, and connections that form the Salesforce ecosystem, which has enabled Agentforce to offer correct, context-aware AI responses.
Informatica gives an even more comprehensive, enterprise-wide view of metadata, pulling in context and lineage from all systems, not just Salesforce. This broader, unified metadata basis will give even more accurate, explainable, and trusted AI responses, allowing clients to confidently scale AI across all aspects of their organization.
Informatica Expands Its Mission as Salesforce’s Data Management Leader
Informatica’s objective to help enterprises connect, manage, and unify AI-ready data will continue as part of Salesforce. Informatica will also continue to support and integrate its AI-powered data management solution with a wide range of partners. Salesforce will rapidly integrate Informatica’s technology stack, which includes data integration, quality, governance, and unified metadata for Agentforce, as well as a single data pipeline with MDM on Data 360, to effortlessly incorporate this system of knowledge and its benefits into the Salesforce ecosystem.
Informatica Point of View
“Joining forces with Salesforce enables us to drastically accelerate our mission as the ‘Switzerland’ of AI-powered data management to help organizations unlock the full value of their data and AI,” stated Amit Walia, president and CEO of Informatica. “By integrating Informatica’s data management capabilities and ecosystem integrations directly into the Agentforce 360 platform, businesses around the world can drive innovation, efficiency, and growth by leveraging a single vendor that unites applications, trusted data, and AI agents.”
Financial Highlights and Q3 FY2026 Earnings Call Summary
Salesforce expects to achieve accretion on a non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP earnings per share basis within 12 months, a full year earlier than originally committed at the deal announcement, and in accordance with the company’s responsible M&A framework. The firm will hold its Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results Conference Call on December 3, 2025, following the market close, during which management will discuss financial results, the transaction, and its impact on fiscal 2026 financial guidance.
