D&B (NYSE: DNB), the world’s leading source of commercial information
and insight on businesses, announced that GlobalSoft, a global software
consultancy, and D&B have partnered to launch D&B360 for Informatica
MDM. This marks the first time that D&B has used its
Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) solution to integrate its unequaled database
with an MDM solution, enabling companies to automatically update and
streamline their data across the enterprise to increase productivity,
reduce costs and maximize ROI.
“With the increasing volume, complexity and volatility of data, it has
become a struggle for companies to not only effectively manage their
data, but to gain the insight necessary to act upon that data to drive
real business change,” said Mike Sabin, senior vice president of Sales
and Marketing Solutions at D&B. “D&B360 for Informatica MDM helps
companies get ahead by delivering timely business data with actionable
perspective to provide a competitive advantage.”
D&B360 for Informatica MDM provides true data stewardship and
entry-point integration, making it easier to address data consistency
and quality issues. In addition, D&B360 for Informatica MDM
automatically embeds the industry-standard D&B DUNS® Number and all
related business data via the cloud, ensuring users have timely access
to a current and complete source of data, enabling them to quickly
synchronize information across other business systems.
“At the recent Gartner MDM Summit, a common theme on the minds of
attendees was the need to evolve current MDM tools to support the ‘day
in the life of the data steward’,” said Andrew White, research vice
president and agenda manager for MDM and Analytics, Gartner.
