The opening of the new facility was bolstered by Israeli marketing analytics company Datorama Ltd., which Salesforce has acquired over the summer for over $800 million. Datorama, which is headquartered in New York and runs a research and development center in Tel Aviv, now operates as a subsidiary of Salesforce. Datorama will run the new center, these people said.
