description: Informatica's flagship Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is sold on a consumption-based
  IPU (Informatica Processing Unit) model. Customers buy a pool of IPUs that can be spent across all
  eligible IDMC services (CDI, CAI, CDQ, MDM-domain records, B2B Gateway, API & App Integration, etc.).
  Public per-IPU dollar pricing is not published; Informatica directs prospects to a contact-sales
  estimate. Master Data Management is additionally metered on a per-domain-records basis.
notes: Per-IPU dollar amount not publicly disclosed. Pricing is volume-based and quoted by Informatica
  sales. Reconcile against an Informatica IPU quote.
