Case Study: LG Electronics achieves 20% database size reduction, faster queries and lower backup costs with Solix Technologies

LG Electronics - Customer Case Study

LG Electronics, a $35B global electronics and appliances leader with 72,000 employees, faced exponential data growth across production databases—more than 1.2 TB in payroll and inventory alone. This caused slow payroll and inventory processes, heavy hardware and admin costs for mirroring and backups, degrading performance ahead of an Oracle upgrade, and the need to keep archived data accessible to end users.

By implementing Solix’s enterprise data archiving, LG archived over 100 million records across payroll, time & labor, inventory, and purchasing in 90 minutes and reduced database size by about 20% per module. The project produced dramatically faster backups, lower mirroring costs, improved query and system performance, a shorter upgrade window, and maintained end-user access to archived data.
