5 Reasons to Consider Informatica Lifecycle Management (ILM)

I recently implemented an Informatica Lifecycle Management (ILM) project at a national auto financing company and I would like to share some details about what I learned about ILM and the benefits my client received.  ILM is a mature and robust data archiving tool used by many organizations to manage and archive large sets of data. ILM helps in the retirement and archiving of enterprise critical data in development, test, and production environments.

Every new application that organizations deploy not only increases the growth of enterprise data, but also leaves behind one or more legacy applications and related data. Without a comprehensive strategy, the costs associated with managing the data for large application portfolios and required infrastructure will burden IT budgets.
