Informatica Strengthens Partnership with Google Cloud, Provides CLAIRE GPT to the Enterprise


Informatica from Salesforce, a leader in AI-powered enterprise cloud data management, is introducing two new capabilities, further expanding its partnership with Google Cloud.

Unveiled at Informatica World 2026, the innovations bring Informatica’s AI-driven data intelligence directly into the Google Cloud environment, according to Informatica.

“The future of enterprise AI relies on open, interconnected ecosystems where agents can seamlessly collaborate using trusted data,” said Satish Thomas, VP of applied AI and platform ecosystem at Google Cloud. “Our deepened partnership with Informatica will empower customers to build multi-agent workflows with Gemini Enterprise that are rooted in enterprise-grade data management.”

Informatica's CLAIRE GPT, the company's conversational AI assistant for enterprise data management, can now be directly tied to Google Cloud. Using CLAIRE GPT, data teams can now discover assets, enrich metadata, assess quality, and resolve governance issues through natural language queries, the company said.

Tasks that once required manual search or multistep workflows can be accomplished in seconds through a simple conversational prompt. CLAIRE GPT is generally available now as part of the Spring 2026 release.

Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol is an open interoperability standard developed by Google, and Informatica CLAIRE data management agents will now support A2A protocol. This enables CLAIRE agents from Informatica to collaborate with AI agents across any platform or vendor, said Informatica.

Organizations building agents on Gemini Enterprise will now be able to invoke CLAIRE agents directly within their agentic workflows to access Informatica's governed enterprise data layer without custom integration, reducing technical overhead.

“These announcements reflect our shared commitment to making enterprise AI more accessible, trustworthy, and interoperable,” said Rik Tamm-Daniels, VP of ecosystem and technology alliances at Informatica. “With CLAIRE GPT native to Google Cloud and A2A protocol support, Informatica agents become collaborative participants in the broader Agentic Enterprise—reinforcing our role as the data foundation for AI and our commitment to headless data management, wherever customers choose to build.”

CLAIRE GPT on Google Cloud Points of Delivery is generally available now. A2A protocol support will be available with the Fall 2026 release.
