Case Study: AlfaStrakhovanie (Alfastrakhovanie PLC) achieves dramatic database performance and application scalability while tripling annual data volume with Oracle

Alfastrakhovanie Dramatically Improves Database Performance and Application Scalability While Tripling Annual Data Volume

Alfastrakhovanie PLC, a leading Russian insurer with 400 branches across nine time zones serving 20 million private clients and 440,000 companies, faced rapidly growing data volumes (doubling or tripling yearly) and needed fast, reliable access to customer, policy, and claims information for field agents and analysts. The company also required high availability with incremental backups without downtime, strong security and compliance, and a scalable platform that avoided frequent server purchases.

Alfastrakhovanie deployed Oracle Database and supporting technologies—Oracle Partitioning, RMAN incremental backups, WebLogic Server, Label Security, Hyperion Planning, and Oracle Premier Support—to boost performance, scalability, security, and development speed. The result was sustained fast access across 400 branches, doubled/tripled annual data growth with no performance loss, dramatically improved query and backup/restore times, faster Java EE application deployment and lower operating costs, and stronger data security and decision-making capabilities.
