Case Study: Austin Community College District achieves near-real-time student access and improved experiences with Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

Austin Community College District Engages Students Faster Using Cloud Integration

Austin Community College District (ACC) serves more than 70,000 students across Central Texas and needed to modernize its IT estate to improve student access and operations. Years of point-to-point, application-specific integrations and a legacy UniData ERP made data slow, duplicated, and hard to maintain—onboarding and granting system access could take 24–48 hours and real-time integration was not possible.

ACC deployed Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services (IICS) — including Cloud Data and Application Integration, API management, and Integration Hub — to create a hub-and-spoke architecture, automate data quality and master student records, and stitch Salesforce, Workday, Okta, and legacy systems together. The result: near-real-time provisioning (access granted in seconds vs. days), reduced IT effort and operating costs, faster insights from trusted “golden” student records, and noticeably improved student and staff experiences.
