Story
Inside Academy Sports, partner data exchange used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. Data platform and lines of business needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Academy Sports uses Master Data Management from Informatica as the working layer for secure data sharing. Informatica is an enterprise data management platform for integration, quality, catalog, and master data across clouds. The practical change is simple: partner data exchange has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Academy Sports gets from Informatica is a durable place to run partner data exchange and a way for data platform and lines of business to see the same secure data sharing at the same time.
