A Progress Software Case Study
LexisNexis, a leading global provider of legal and business information, faced a challenge where its clients needed real-time reporting capabilities. Their existing solution, an overnight ETL process for their Lexis Visualfiles workflow system, could not keep up with the rising volume of data and the 24/7 nature of modern business. This inability to provide near-real-time data updates was limiting the value LexisNexis could deliver to its customers.
The vendor, Progress Software, provided the solution with its OpenEdge Pro2 data replication product. This tool replicated data to a target database in near-real time without straining the production system. As a result, LexisNexis clients gained the ability to build any report with fresh data, dramatically improving their reporting capabilities and enabling them to better serve their own customers. Progress Software's solution was seamlessly embedded into the core product, making it easier to manage and providing incredible flexibility.
