Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In this users section here you can see which users are configured and you have the ability to suspend a user. If you want to edit or add users, you need to go to the Organization section, then click on another user section there, which then gives you the ability to edit or add users.

Pros

  • It's not a major problem, but it's an example of one of many small annoyances.
  • Also, there is no proper documentation available

Cons

  • The reports are not as robust as we need them to be.
  • You can get reports on orders and reports on tickets, but you can't get a report on which tickets have completed payments.

Most Important Features

  • it is very easy to issue such certificates using AWS Certificate Manager
  • we only need to request a certificate for the website URL and after validating the request

Return on Investment

  • it is also fully integrated with all other AWS services
  • manages the entire life cycle of the Certificates by itself, so it will reduce your work by a really big amount
  • it can also be easily integrated with ELB and front-end cloud services.

Goes well with PowerCenter!

Pros

  • Works well with curated data
  • Allows you to monitor data movements within an organisation
  • Advisable to use ILM if already using Informatica PowerCenter

Cons

  • As a standalone tool (without PowerCenter), ILM does not add much value.

Return on Investment

  • Tracking the usage of specific brackets of data across the entire organisation has now become possible.
  • The team was already using PowerCenter. Therefore, using ILM was a very apt decision that allowed easier management of data at the organisation level.

Groundfloor Proof of Concept opinion on Informatica ILM

Pros

  • Data crunching on housing markets
  • Management of internal data usage
  • The tech is still very new to our company and as such we are still seeing where it can be of use.

Cons

  • As we are still piloting the product at our company at this time the feedback is highly limited.

Return on Investment

  • As I am not in the accounting department, and as this product is still being piloted on a limited level, I cannot provide any feedback on ROI
