Abstract

At Manheim, CA Test Data Manager (fka Grid-Tools Datamaker) was used to provide teams with the data they needed and when they needed it. Synthetic data generation reduced human interaction by 80% in the data provisioning process, while Data Subset was used to achieve low-cost, rapid extraction of test data from production databases.
