DevOps software company Perforce has expanded its testing and synthetic data capabilities with the introduction of AI-powered synthetic data generation through its Delphix platform. The new feature, called Delphix AI, uses a language model embedded in its DevOps Data Platform to automatically create synthetic data for development and testing environments.
The capability combines data masking, data delivery and synthetic data generation in a single platform, allowing teams to replace sensitive data with synthetic alternatives while maintaining data structure for testing purposes. The AI model runs within an organization’s IT environment without requiring external data science resources or cloud connectivity.
“We’re making AI available where it’s historically been forbidden,” Steve Karam, principal product manager at Perforce, said in a news release. “With a fully air-gapped, in-platform small language model running on CPU only, organizations generate synthetic data inside their IT perimeter, thus harnessing AI responsibly, securely, and cost-effectively.” The feature is part of Perforce Intelligence, the company’s initiative to embed AI across its products.
