The key benefits of the proposed automated TDM solution include the following:
Optimization of the process, reducing efforts to identify Test Data by 90%
Reduction in the hours spent waiting for testing environments to be restored, resulting in about a 35% saving
Reduced subsetting and data masking effort with the use of tools such as ILM Informatica, IBM OPTIM, SAP TDMS, and CA DataMaker
Right-sized environments and test data aligned to the testing requirements
Accurate and efficient delivery of TDM data in time
Cost reduction through reduced storage and infrastructure costs
Optimal testing coverage
Ability to track data and its usage
Masking of production data, and offering production-like quality of test data
Ability to create synthetic data to meet new testing requirements
Ability to run end-to-end test scenarios
