Expanding Cloud Footprint
The collaboration will enhance Experian’s development by improving performance, scalability, and reliability. By transitioning from mainframe computers and on-premises servers to AWS, the company aims to centralize its technology platforms in the cloud, thereby enabling deeper insights and predictive capabilities.
Experian has also selected AWS as a GenAI partner under their 10-year agreement, with the goal of developing over 100 GenAI use-cases. This partnership is intended to democratize data technologies for employees, boost operational efficiency, and introduce new credit and financial analytics features. Through GenAI, Experian intends to simplify database migrations, automate large database transfers, minimize downtime, and optimize information accuracy.
AWS aims to assist Experian in modernizing its operations, unlocking growth opportunities, and increasing productivity. As the company builds intelligent data platforms and develops applications with GenAI, it is expected to improve its overall operational performance while maintaining security and regulatory compliance.
Initial migrations have already demonstrated better performance, security, and reliability for Experian, making a full cloud-first strategy more feasible. By storing and accessing data in the cloud, the company has been able to invest in GenAI and create new products. The migration has reduced data processing time by 60%, allowed faster product launches, and enabled real-time credit data analysis.
AWS’s robust security controls, threat detection, and prevention features ensure high standards of data protection and compliance with industry regulations.
