Case Study: Fortune 500 Corporations achieve streamlined, reliable mission-critical operations with Stratus Technologies' VOS Essentials

Improving operational management of mission-critical systems with VOS Essentials from Stratus and ARI

Stratus supports mission-critical financial operations with its VOS platforms, but three large U.S. customers—a major options exchange, a national credit card processor and a brokerage firm—faced similar operational challenges: thousands of daily jobs and transactions, heavy reliance on operator intervention, limited visibility into performance, and a need to reduce human error and control costs.

They deployed the VOS Essentials toolkit (MENU, LAMS Alert Manager, Job Scheduler & Monitor, and PERF) to automate scheduling and monitoring, enable automatic recovery, and deliver real-time and historical performance data with no application changes and rapid installation. The result: fully automated processing (over 2,000 daily jobs for the card processor), fewer operators, faster troubleshooting and capacity planning, and materially improved reliability and operational efficiency.
