This top 10 property and casualty insurer has millions of customers and a special focus for bringing leading-edge technologies to compete in the automobile insurance market.

The insurer’s long history, operational scale and growth have been supported by legacy systems that grew in size to tens of millions of lines of source code. Newer open systems are displacing older ones, but they needed to integrate with a wide variety of other systems spanning both older and newer platforms. Numerous information risk points included data translation, synchronization, communication, complex business rules, data warehouses, regulatory reporting and calculations.

The insurer needed a solution that could scale to perform in its highly information-intensive enterprise. In addition, a wide variety of analysis options were needed to enable validation of content in various formats, from different platforms and databases.
