Case Study: Wheeler Machinery Company achieves real-time BI and resilient operations with Precisely's Connect and Assure iTERA HA

With Precisely, Wheeler was able to remove BI workload from its production systems yet also provide managers with up-to-the-minute data

Wheeler Machinery Company, a Caterpillar equipment dealer with 600 employees across 13 locations, faced repeated BI replication failures and performance strain that delayed or corrupted critical reports and scorecards, undermining confidence in their data. To keep their existing architecture intact while delivering up-to-the-minute information, Wheeler engaged Precisely and implemented Precisely’s Connect and Assure iTERA HA solutions.

Precisely used Connect to replicate production updates in near real-time to a dedicated Microsoft SQL Server data warehouse for BI use and deployed Assure iTERA HA to maintain an offsite real-time replica 300 miles away. The result: nightly ETL jobs were eliminated, managers gain real-time reports to make faster decisions, BI workloads no longer impact production systems, user complaints dropped, and business continuity is protected with no day-to-day management required.
