Salesforce is deepening its collaboration with Informatica to improve how companies in Japan manage and use data for AI agents. The partnership expands the Data 360 portfolio and focuses on something many companies still struggle with. AI systems making sensible data decisions in the context of suitable business insights.
The move follows Salesforce completing its acquisition of Informatica in November 2025. On March 1 2026 Salesforce Japan officially integrated all operations of Informatica Japan.
A lot of companies are still experimenting with AI-based agents but the results are often found wanting. One simple reason. Data sits everywhere. ERP systems, legacy platforms, multiple cloud environments. AI ends up working with fragmented information and no real understanding of business context. Without clean and connected data, agents cannot make reliable decisions.

Salesforce is trying to fix that by bringing together Data 360, MuleSoft, and Informatica as a single data foundation. Informatica handles large scale data management tasks such as data transformation, cataloging, quality control, and master data management so companies can create a single reliable data record. MuleSoft acts as the integration layer that connects systems and APIs and moves that data across applications in near real time. Data 360 then makes that cleaned data usable inside the Salesforce environment so AI tools like Agentforce and analytics platforms can work with it directly.
The idea is straightforward. Connect scattered data, clean it, and make it usable for AI. Salesforce says this type of setup can reduce duplicate records, improve governance, and give companies a stable foundation as they move toward what it calls agent based enterprises.
