Scalable Data Integration with Informatica

One of our clients in the United States, a global retail enterprise, faced challenges managing and processing large volumes of transactional and customer data across multiple systems.

Business Challenge

The existing ETL workflows were time-consuming, leading to delays in generating actionable insights and affecting decision-making processes. Additionally, inconsistent data integration processes caused discrepancies, leading to reporting inaccuracies.
