Informatica for free

Saw this today, and thought I'd share.


If you are interested in installing Informatica PowerCenter (server + client) on your Home PC/ Laptop, here is how you can do it. The copy comes with a Development License http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/popup-license/standard-license.html that allows you to use full version of the product at no charge for strictly self-educational purposes.

Go to http://edelivery.oracle.com/

Fill in the form in the next page.

In the Media Pack Search page, search for "Oracle Business Intelligence"

Download the version that you want to install.

Notes:
You may also want to download an Oracle database.
