     makes it easy for enterprise users including data scientists, business
     analysts and developers set up and schedule data integration tasks.
  -- Easy Embeddability - Informatica Cloud iPaaS features such as REST APIs,
     Cloud Connector Toolkit and Integration Templates, allow developers to
