Top Data Integration Tools In 2020: Here’s Who Made Gartner’s Magic Quadrant
Rick Whiting
These 20 developers of data integration tools include industry giants IBM and SAP, established data integration companies like Informatica and Talend, and more recent entrants such as Matillion and HVR. Here’s a look at how they are positioned in the fast-changing data integration arena.

Leader: Oracle
Database, application and cloud software vendor Oracle is also in the Leaders quadrant with its Oracle GoldenGate, Oracle Data Integration Suite, Oracle Big Data SQL, Oracle Integration Cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Data Integration and OCI Data Flow software. The company’s customer base for the products is 12,000 organizations.
Strengths: Oracle has a strong product portfolio for supporting data fabric designs, according to Gartner, and the company is focused on data management capability convergence by delivering data integration, data quality and data cataloging through a single platform. Reference customers gave Oracle high marks for its “enterprise-grade” products with high scalability and performance.
Cautions: Oracle received the lowest mean score among all vendors from reference customers for “pricing method” and “overall pricing.” Customers reported using Oracle data integration software only for traditional use cases and not for modern use cases such as IoT data integration and data services orchestration. And Gartner said the ability to deploy Oracle data integration services on other cloud service providers is limited.
