Case Study: Mariner xVu achieves lower operating costs and scalable performance with EnterpriseDB Postgres Plus Advanced Server

Mariner Lowers Operation Costs with Postgres Plus Advanced Server

Mariner, a global leader in Video Service Oriented Monitoring (vSOM) and maker of the Mariner xVu platform (managing 7 million devices), sought to expand into the SMB market but found its existing database technology too costly for that segment. The company needed a lower‑cost, open source–based database that could support high transaction throughput without forcing Mariner to build and support a custom Postgres solution internally.

Mariner selected EnterpriseDB’s Postgres Plus Advanced Server for its scalability and enterprise support, with EnterpriseDB providing training, support and a strong user community. Implementations beginning in 2009 delivered faster administration (notably via the Advanced Server vacuum feature), reduced OS and database licensing and hardware update costs, and lower DBA time—yielding significant operating‑cost savings while maintaining required performance and capacity.
