A Oracle Exadata Case Study
ADNOC Distribution, a UAE petroleum distributor with more than 3,000 concurrent users and 24/7 business-critical applications, needed to reduce database bottlenecks, control rising IT costs, and support rapid growth. The company chose Oracle Exadata Database Machine to replace a fragmented environment of 10 databases and multiple operating systems, while supporting ERP, OLTP, and business intelligence workloads.
Oracle Exadata consolidated ADNOC Distribution’s systems onto a single private database cloud, improving availability and delivering major performance gains. The results included an average 15x improvement in main sales systems, 20x gains in banking-related processing, 60x faster supply-chain reporting, nearly 90% fewer performance bottlenecks, 90% lower storage needs, and ROI within one year; ADNOC Distribution also reduced billing time from 220 minutes to 10 minutes and saved thousands of processing hours annually.
