Case Study: KESSLER & CO AG cuts TCO by ~80% and boosts document-management performance up to 5x with Oracle Database Appliance (Oracle)

KESSLER reduces costs and optimizes performance with Oracle Engineered Systems

KESSLER & Co AG is a Swiss family-run risk-management, insurance, and pension-fund consultant serving many of the country’s largest firms and public organizations. The company relied on a high-performance document-management system that digitalizes and processes up to 1,500 documents per day, but rising database costs and an outdated infrastructure made total cost of ownership unacceptable and prompted a search for a future-proof, secure solution that could be implemented quickly without disrupting business or adding internal staff.

KESSLER migrated to two Oracle Database Appliances (active and backup) with Dbvisit Replicate for log duplication and engaged Oracle partner Edorex for implementation and ongoing maintenance. The change cut database TCO to about 20% of the legacy system, boosted performance up to 5x, reduced backups from roughly an hour to minutes, ensured uninterrupted processing at peak loads, eliminated internal maintenance overhead, and delivered fast, seamless deployment with capacity to support future growth.
