eBayInformatica Supports Applied Machine Learning at eBay
eBay, a consumer discretionary organization in the United States, uses Intelligent Data Management Cloud from Informatica to support applied machine learning for data scientists and ML engineers.
Intelligent Data Management Cloud became the place eBay uses to train and ship models on the same lakehouse the business already trusts.
“From the United States, consumer discretionary teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer.”
“Rolling out Intelligent Data Management Cloud put applied machine learning on Informatica.”

Story
eBay grew feature pipelines faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, consumer discretionary teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Data scientists and ML engineers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Intelligent Data Management Cloud put applied machine learning on Informatica. Informatica is an enterprise data management platform for integration, quality, catalog, and master data across clouds. eBay keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so data scientists and ML engineers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier applied machine learning. Feature pipelines is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join data scientists and ML engineers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
