The Michigan Education Association Uses Astera to Schedule Data Extraction and Integration Overnight
The Michigan Education Association (MEA), representing 120,000 educators, manages data from multiple sources including CSV and flat files with over 8 million rows. MEA’s outsourced invoicing partner sends diverse structured and unstructured files via zip folders on an SFTP server, which MEA manually downloads, unzips, and loads into their MS SQL transactional system. Implementing Astera’s data integration solution automated extraction and processing of varied file formats, streamlining data workflows, reducing manual effort, and improving data accuracy and operational efficiency for MEA’s complex invoicing and member management processes.
