Case Study: Generalitat Valenciana achieves 50% faster database performance and improved availability with Oracle Exadata (Oracle)

Generalitat Valenciana Consolidates More than 50 Databases and Servers to Boost Performance by 50% and Improve Availability and Efficiency

Generalitat Valenciana, the regional government of Valencia, Spain, which serves about 5 million citizens with 15,000 employees, needed to modernize a fragmented IT landscape of more than 50 aging, geographically dispersed databases and servers. The primary challenges were consolidating and migrating over 20 TB of judicial, tax, and subsidy records into a unified infrastructure, minimizing migration effort and downtime, improving citizen access to services, and strengthening backup and data-security capabilities.

Using Oracle Exadata alongside Oracle Active Data Guard, GoldenGate, Service Bus, and WebLogic, Generalitat Valenciana consolidated its databases and standardized operations. The initiative boosted database performance by 50%, reduced storage needs by more than 10%, cut data-migration and transformation time by 50%, improved electronic submission handling, and delivered more robust backups and replication to secure public-administration data—while Oracle supported design, implementation, and staff training throughout the project.
