Case Study: Leading Insurance Company in East Asia achieves faster reporting, improved application performance and reduced storage costs with Solix Technologies' Solix EDMS Database Archiving

Leading Insurance Company in East Asia meets its Data Management Challenges with Solix EDMS Database Archiving

A Fortune 500 insurance company in East Asia with operating income over US$18 billion was struggling with runaway growth of its Oracle E-Business Suite production database. The bloat caused degrading application performance, slow quarter-end report generation, lengthening backup/restore and cloning windows, and rising capex for storage and servers—problems that tuning and hardware purchases alone could not sustainably solve.

Working with Oracle ACS, the company deployed Solix EDMS (Database Archiving, Test Data Management and Data Masking). Over a series of non-disruptive weekends Solix archived seldom-accessed data to lower-cost storage while preserving online access and referential integrity, produced smaller masked test subsets, and automated cloning. The result: a smaller, manageable production database, faster reports and application access, shorter backup/restore and clone times, reduced storage capex, improved test-data security and compliance, and ROI that exceeded expectations.
