Dollar General Outsources Data Warehouse

1010data, New York, has signed a multi-year contract with Dollar General here to host the discount retailer’s enterprise data warehouse and provide analytical tools and related support via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model.

GOODLETTSVILLE, Tenn. — 1010data, New York, has signed a multi-year contract with Dollar General here to host the discount retailer’s enterprise data warehouse and provide analytical tools and related support via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model.

Dollar General, the largest discount retailer in the United States by number of stores, currently generates over 5 billion records of data annually and has accumulated over 70 billion records of historical and operational data. Rapidly growing data volumes have exhausted the capabilities of the company’s existing data warehouse infrastructure.

Under the agreement, Dollar General will use 1010data’s hosted solution for all data warehousing needs for its operations, which includes more than 8,500 stores, nine distribution centers and its corporate office.

“1010data’s ability to deliver and support our business requirements from raw source data with no pre-preparation of the data is impressive,” said Ryan Boone, senior vice president and chief information officer of Dollar General, in a statement.
