Salesforce is buying Informatica, a company that uses AI to manage data online, for about $8 billion. Informatica's owners will get $25 for each share, which is about 11% more than the price last Friday. This purchase will greatly improve how Salesforce handles data. Informatica was a private company from 2015 until 2021, when it became public again. Both companies agree on helping businesses use data well in the age of AI. Salesforce plans to use Informatica's abilities, especially in areas like government, healthcare, and finance. The deal has been approved by both companies' leaders and should be finished early in Salesforce's 2027 financial year. After the news, Salesforce's shares went up a little, while Informatica's stock increased by 5.7%.
