Acxiom Corporation (Nasdaq: ACXM), a global leader in marketing services and technology, today announced that it ranked 18th on the 2010 InformationWeek 500 as well as among the top five companies in the Consulting and Business Services category.

This is the highest ranking Acxiom has achieved in the seven consecutive years it has been listed on the InformationWeek 500, which includes the top technology innovators in the U.S. Last year, Acxiom ranked 63rd on the list.

Since its founding more than 40 years ago, Acxiom has provided the most secure, reliable and high performance technology services to clients, leveraging enterprise cloud solutions to help transform their IT infrastructures. Acxiom’s cloud solutions enable clients to deploy services on-demand, reduce costs and risks and optimize IT operations. The company is a global leader in consumer data processing with approximately 2.5 trillion records processed per month and more than 30 trillion records per year.

“This recognition confirms our ability to offer transformative technology that addresses both present-day needs and future demands. Our massively parallel processing cloud computing infrastructure is especially suited for our customers with the most demanding information-intensive requirements," said John Meyer, Acxiom chief executive officer.

Acxiom’s ranking reflects its move toward Transformation as a Service, a combination of methodology, services and tools designed to migrate legacy environments into cloud-enabled environments. Acxiom’s standardization, consolidation and virtualization of large IT infrastructures provide clients with higher performance capabilities at more efficient costs and reduced risk.

“For 22 years, the InformationWeek 500 has honored the most innovative users of business technology,” said Rob Preston, InformationWeek editor in chief. “As we start to emerge from the worst recession in decades, the IT focus is now on driving growth—new sources of revenue, new relationships with customers, even new business models. This year’s ranking placed special emphasis on those companies and business technology executives leading that charge.”

InformationWeek identifies and honors the nation's most innovative users of information technology with its annual 500 listing, and also tracks the technology, strategies, investments and administrative practices of America’s best-known companies. Top winners have included: CME Group, Conway, National Semiconductor, Kimberly-Clark, Hilton Hotels and Unum. The InformationWeek 500 ranking is unique among corporate rankings as it spotlights the power of innovation in information technology, rather than simply identifying the biggest IT spenders.
