In all industries, business performance can be dramatically improved when companies act on the insights that organized, accessible data can provide into their internal processes and models. Like most companies AutoTrader has historically been a moderate user of data, however, recent changes in our strategy – with our overarching goal to become an Integrated Data Services Driven Organization, have caused the company to become very focused on developing a deeper level of expertise in how we engineer our applications to effectively manage our data assets.Description
