Case Study: Delta Dental accelerates cloud migration and secures dev/test data with Perforce Delphix

Delta Dental accelerates cloud migrations 20% with Perforce

Delta Dental, the largest dental benefits system in the U.S., faced challenges in its cloud migration strategy due to highly manual processes for moving data to AWS. These slow, traditional methods, which took up to eight weeks, delayed time-to-market and increased compliance risks associated with securing sensitive personally identifiable and protected health information. To overcome this, they partnered with vendor Perforce and implemented its Delphix Data Platform.

The solution from Perforce involved a hybrid cloud architecture using Delphix to non-disruptively collect, mask, and replicate data to AWS. This allowed developers to instantly provision secure, virtual data copies. As a result, Delta Dental accelerated its cloud migration timelines by 20%, reducing the time to move data from eight weeks to just hours. The company also secured PII/PHI and provided over 200 developers with self-service access to data, while significantly reducing storage requirements through data virtualization.
