Equifax Cloud Data Fabric Capabilities

At Equifax, we pride ourselves on having the only global, cloud-native platforms that enable teams to work in parallel and create holistic solutions. In 2020, we made great strides toward our transition to the Equifax Cloud (EFX Cloud, or Data Fabric), which allows for the creation of compliant, multi-data products and solutions that have the potential to yield more powerful, predictive insights.

During this transformation, we migrated over 50 billion records, 47,000 customers, and over 1 million contributors in the process. By moving from over 80 data silos, we also created the opportunity to standardize and organize data from multiple sources into a seamless and comprehensive Cloud with logical separation and governing rules. With this drastically simplified architecture, we can provide products and services that address customer, regulatory, and security needs at a much faster pace.
