-- IRI, Inc., a leading distributor of data management and protection solutions, has added new capabilities to its RowGen and Voracity platforms, empowering enterprises to generate test data with improved accuracy, enhanced flexibility, and better compliance support. The enhancements, now available globally, reflect the growing demand for intelligent test data tools that operate across complex IT landscapes while addressing strict privacy and regulatory standards.
“Organizations today face growing demands to deliver high-quality applications more quickly, all while maintaining strict data security,” explained Luluk Soraya, spokesperson for IRI, Inc. “Our new features help teams generate realistic, de-identified test data at scale, on demand, and completely separate from live production systems.”
The enhanced RowGen engine enables the synthesis of referentially correct, statistically valid test data across all major relational databases, file formats, and data models. It now offers improved metadata-driven generation, enriched support for nested and compound data structures, and expanded output compatibility for formats such as JSON, XML, Excel, PDFs, and Kafka feeds. These features are embedded within the IRI Voracity platform, enabling development and testing teams to provision comprehensive, realistic datasets that reflect production behavior without exposing sensitive information.
The ability to generate test data without relying on live systems ensures faster testing cycles, safer application development, and reduced risk of compliance violations. Combined with RowGen's deep support for over 100 native data types and its ability to simulate distribution, frequency, and formatting constraints, IRI delivers one of the most complete test data tool kits on the market.
Complementing data synthesis is IRI’s mature data masking portfolio—FieldShield, DarkShield, and CellShield—which allows organizations to discover and anonymize sensitive information across structured, semi-structured, and unstructured sources. When used together with RowGen, these tools provide a flexible framework for subsetting, masking, or fully generating safe data for DevOps, database virtualization, and cloud test environments.
These new capabilities are critical for teams building prototypes, validating ETL workflows, stress-testing platforms, or complying with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA. With built-in compatibility for CI/CD pipelines and virtualization tools, the platform aligns with modern test data management strategies across enterprise use cases.
With these expanded capabilities in RowGen and Voracity, IRI reinforces its position as a leader in secure, scalable test data generation. The company remains committed to enabling development and data governance teams with smarter, faster ways to work with compliant, production-quality data—without production risk.
