“Our clients often leverage data from various providers to drive their marketing strategies and decisions,” said Amanda Terry, vice president of publisher and platform partnerships at Acxiom. “Before AWS Data Exchange, clients would have to go to multiple SFTP sites to download the information and bring those data assets together in one place. Having the ability to access these insights in one place gives our clients the ability to spend more time on the analysis needed to make good business decisions and create better customer experiences.”
