Case Study: AGL Resources achieves 400% faster data processing and full ROI in under a year with Informatica PowerCenter

Leading energy services provider uses Informatica PowerCenter to improve data processing performance by 400% and achieve full ROI in under one year

AGL Resources (Atlanta Gas Light) is the second-largest sole distributor of natural gas in the U.S., serving more than 2.3 million customers across six states across distribution, retail, wholesale, midstream and shipping businesses. Facing increased competition, deregulation and diversification, the company needed deeper insight into customer and consumption trends by consolidating data from disparate relational and non-relational systems, creating common definitions and metrics, and providing access to both historical and current customer data.

By migrating to Informatica PowerCenter, AGL dramatically improved performance, reliability, metadata management and usability, enabling faster, more accurate analytics. The move boosted data processing performance by 400%, delivered full ROI in under a year, allowed a half-terabyte data warehouse to be managed by a single full-time employee, and supported implementation of a new pricing structure to improve market penetration.
