Case Study: IHS Markit achieves faster SAP support and 30% less Firefighter access with Attunity Gold Client

IHS Markit Uses Attunity Gold Client to Enhance its SAP User Experience with Secure and Accurate Test Data Access

IHS Markit, a global leader in information and analytics, needed a better way to support SAP users while meeting strict compliance requirements. Before Attunity and its Gold Client product, the team relied on manual QA data creation and had to wait days for production access, making support slow and inefficient.

Attunity implemented Gold Client to copy production data accurately into QA and DEV, including dependencies and select transactional data, while also supporting data scrambling for sensitive information. The results included about a 30% reduction in Firefighter access usage, 70–80% fewer development changes reaching production on larger projects, less documentation and approvals, and faster, simpler SAP support with implementation completed in just two days.
