How Data Sync Manager helps Kingfisher improve their SAP data
Kingfisher uses Data Sync Manager (DSM) to refresh their non-production systems, saving on system size and performance.
I'm Steve Thorn, I work for Kingfisher. Kingfisher owns companies across Europe such as B and Q and Screwfix. We use Data Sync Manager, Data Secure and also Object Sync. The company's actually had involvement with EPI-USE Labs since 2004 but in the last two or three years we've used a lot more of their products mainly for doing refreshes of non production test systems. Kingfisher has very, very large production systems so this proves quite a challenge and EPI-USE enables us to reduce the data footprint in those systems. The big benefit is we don't want all of our production data in our test systems. We can reduce it massively using EPI-USE Data Sync by time slicing which is typically the main way that we do it. Obviously, saving us a huge amount on system size and performance.
