Contractor at Sanlam
Cloud data catalog has streamlined lineage and quality while leaving more automation to improve
I have not explored IDMC's automation capabilities driven by AI and metadata too much at the moment, but it is on the cards. We are basically creating the foundation, as the whole migration has taken place recently and it is still early days. I think Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is evolving, and as the vendors move forward, they pick up new concepts from each other. I have seen that products leapfrog each other, and from my experience over the years, the big players tend to copy features or add enhancements based on industry trends. I feel whatever the tool does not have now, there is a feedback loop allowing us to request new features, and we continually ask for different ways to do things as we have a pipeline into the product management team. It is difficult to say what additional features I would prefer to see in the next release of IDMC. I would appreciate more automation on the lineage front, with more AI to seamlessly join independent sources and create seamless lineage between different technologies, such as from file into database A into a different database and landing up in a reporting system such as Cognos, Qlik, Qlik Sense, QlikView, or Power BI.

Enhancing user experience and data management with effective central repository capabilities
The area of improvement with OpenText 360 for SharePoint is that sometimes there are unexpected service outages. Though these situations are rare, I want to highlight that in case of any outage in the services, because everything is located in SharePoint, there is a chance that reports start failing or dashboards fail, or the system behaves differently. In future updates, I would want to see widgets available in OpenText 360 for SharePoint to interact with third-party tools. For example, when creating a dashboard, having the ability to embed these directly into SharePoint would be beneficial. Currently, I have to use hyperlinks to access other tools such as Tableau or ClickView. If it were possible to merge everything and bring all information from multiple teams (Cognos, ClickView, AWS) into SharePoint as a centralized place, it would be really helpful. That is what I envision for the integrator part.
