Okera Drives Business Agility and Solves For Gdpr Data Security for One of the Largest Apparel Manufacturers

Largest Apparel Manufacturers Company, one of the world’s largest active apparel manufacturers, needed a way to move new business initiatives to the cloud while protecting sensitive customer data and staying compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations. Manual access control was slowing analytics teams and limiting their ability to support personalization, inventory, and customer experience initiatives, so the company turned to Okera and its Active Data Access Platform (ODAP).

Okera implemented a unified data access control and governance layer across the company’s seven-petabyte Amazon S3 data lake and multiple analytics engines, enabling row-, column-, and cell-level security, dynamic obfuscation, detailed auditing, and consent/right-to-erasure capabilities. With Okera, the company processes more than two million queries and over one trillion records per day, while estimating more than $2 million in annual efficiency savings, about $1 million in AWS service savings, and avoidance of hundreds of millions of dollars in potential regulatory exposure.
