I’ve been in the Information Lifecycle Management space since my days with Princeton Softech, and then IBM Optim. Way back then there was a misunderstanding about Backups really being a proxy for Archives. They aren’t. I’ve recently gotten some feedback from our field teams that this notion has not disappeared over the years. As you […]
As we enter a new year, I’ve been reflecting on a question nearly every CEO, CIO, and CTO is grappling with today: Over the past two years, enterprises have invested heavily in AI pilots—chatbots, copilots, dashboards, and proofs of concept. Yet many leaders are realizing that AI bolted onto legacy architectures does not deliver transformation. […]
Problem Overview Enterprise data archiving has historically focused on cost containment, regulatory retention, and application performance optimization. Platforms such as Informatica Data Archive emerged during an era dominated by on-premises systems, batch processing, and structured data workloads. For many organizations, these solutions provided stability and compliance at scale. Today, enterprise data environments have changed materially. […]
AI trust is not a vibe. It is controls, evidence, and auditability. If you cannot explain where an answer came from, you cannot scale it into the business. Why governance becomes urgent the moment AI can act Traditional BI tolerated slow cycles. A dashboard can be wrong and you might catch it next week. An […]
If your AI cannot reliably find the right data, everything downstream looks like a model problem. It is not. It is a discoverability problem. Discoverability is not search. It is trust. In enterprise AI, discoverability means an assistant or agent can find, understand, and trace the data, logic, and decisions behind an answer. When discoverability […]
MCP is not the strategy. MCP is the wiring. The strategy is a governed, discoverable, provisioned data foundation that makes AI consistent. The core problem Enterprises are racing to deploy copilots and AI agents, but the trust gap is real. When AI can act, not just answer, every weak integration becomes a risk surface. Inconsistent […]
