Case Study: AARP achieves 20% faster data loads and improved IT efficiency with Informatica

Reduced time required to load data by 20 percent

AARP, the U.S. membership and advocacy organization for people 50 and over, needed to better analyze growing volumes and varieties of data to deliver the most attractive benefits and services to members. With projected data growth and new sources, the organization faced challenges around data integration performance, IT efficiency, and building scalable capacity for future needs.

AARP implemented Informatica PowerCenter and PowerExchange to access, integrate, and deliver mission‑critical data. The solution cut data load times by 20%, let a single IT staffer complete the upgrade in under 30 days, extended integration cost‑effectively using reusable data models and mappings, and simplified installation and administration—providing a scalable platform to support additional data sources and new member services.
