University of New Orleans
In 1958, the University of New Orleans opened its doors as the first fully integrated public university in the southern United States. Since then, it has educated students from all 50 U.S. states and more than 130 countries. The university is named as one of the nation’s best colleges by The Princeton Review, Forbes, and U.S. News & World Report.
“With Informatica and Snowflake, we’re democratizing data across the university while improving operational efficiency. We’re making data much more accessible. This enables reporting in less time while helping to improve information security and reduce operating costs.”
