“Data linkage has been a laborious process in the past, with the huge strain of building connections resting on the section that provides data, and of extracting and processing data on the section that uses the data. After constructing the data management infrastructure with Data Factory, however, data utilization became effortless in various ways. The multiple standard connectors that come with Data Factory facilitated data integration with file servers and API-based linkage with cloud services, while allowing us to extract data from multiple databases. As the IT department, we feel that we succeeded in offering a system that encourages our business units, which are the leading players in data utilization, to be actively involved in data utilization.”

It provides a great deal of flexibility, which gives me an ability to understand stories and understand what data is telling us—not hysterics on social media or anecdotal examples. I want the data to power the stories, and that's been really enlightening to be able to see that and have that flexibility as we have moved through.”
