IGATE Corporation (IGATE or the Company) (NASDAQ: IGTE), the New Jersey-headquartered integrated technology and operations solutions provider, today announced its partnership with Solix Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of Enterprise Data Management (EDM) solutions. Under the partnership IGATE and Solix will provide comprehensive enterprise data management solutions to their clients, enabling them to cost effectively and nimbly manage exponentially growing data and resulting transformations in the technology applications landscape.

In a connected digital world, enterprises need to surmount key challenges as they rapidly evolve to meet emerging business needs:

  1. Exponential growth of unstructured and rich media data which implies that availability, access, storage and cost factors must be finely balanced
  2. A changing technology applications landscape which means applications must be constantly merged, retired and introduced to meet fast changing business needs for capability and agility. These needs can arise out of both organic and inorganic growth (M&A)
  3. Growing security and privacy needs to meet regulatory, compliance and customer trust factors

As an end-to-end services firm, and leveraging its unique ITOPS outcome based model, IGATE will help clients successfully meet these challenges from both technology and data strategy perspectives. With strengths in end-to-end digital transformation, IGATE will leverage the market leading Solix product suite to deliver comprehensive forward looking solutions to clients.
