Case Study: SunCoke Energy boosts Oracle query performance with Condusiv V-locity

SunCoke Energy cuts Oracle query time from 45 seconds to 15 with Condusiv Technologies

SunCoke Energy, a major industrial company, faced significant performance issues with its Oracle database and IBM Cognos BI software, causing painfully slow query times that hindered its business operations. After months of extensive and costly troubleshooting with minimal results, the company turned to Condusiv Technologies for a solution using its V-locity software.

Condusiv's V-locity software was implemented on the company's virtual machines, where its IntelliWrite and IntelliMemory technologies dramatically reduced I/O inefficiencies at the source. The solution delivered immediate and substantial results, cutting the notorious query time from 45 seconds down to 15 seconds and reducing overall I/O counts by 53%. SunCoke Energy was amazed by the performance gains achieved by Condusiv without requiring additional hardware investment, also noting the unexpected benefit of backup times being reduced from hours to minutes.
