Informatica Inc. is expanding its collaboration with Oracle Corp. to encompass a new set of deployment options and integrations intended to accelerate artificial intelligence adoption on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

The announcement includes four major elements.

The Blueprint for Agentic AI on OCI is a framework optimized for building and deploying agent-driven applications on Oracle’s cloud. It includes no-code connectors, prebuilt recipes and an application programming interface layer for faster development of AI agents that rely on real-time data access.

Informatica said it will support the Model Context Protocol through a new dedicated MCP server within its Intelligent Data Management Cloud platform. That allows AI agents to directly access Informatica’s data management tools via MCP, an open standard that allows AI agents to securely connect to and interact with external data sources and tools. The server is scheduled to be available in April.

Informatica’s Master Data Management Software-as-a-Service is now natively available on OCI, giving Oracle customers direct access to Informatica’s MDM services across domains such as customer, supplier and product records.

IDMC is now available on Oracle Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer, enabling organizations to run the full IDMC suite within their private OCI environments. Cloud@Customer is a fully managed Oracle cloud region that runs inside a customer’s data center and is typically used by companies with strict data sovereignty or regulatory compliance needs.

Informatica said the enhancements are intended to help enterprises establish a single source of truth across hybrid environments, streamline AI data flows and make it easier for partners and integrators to build AI applications.
