Protective Life Created an Enterprise Data Dictionary with ER/Studio

Overview

Alabama-based Protective Life has been in business for more than 100 years, providing innovative insurance solutions and investment products that help its clients achieve and maintain financial security. With about 250 IT employees serving the technology needs of the entire company, efficiency in database design and management is essential. Financial data must be stored using strict regulations to keep information confidential and protected.

Challenge

Given the distributed nature of IT teams across Protective Life’s enterprise, keeping everything protected, standardized, centralized and accessible can be quite challenging. The team’s goal was to improve cross-functional collaboration on business requirements, designs and data models while enforcing standards in the existing shared modeling environment.
