Case Study: Banco BICSA achieves automated, reliable data integration and faster BI with Syniti Data Replication

Banco BISCA Automated Data Integration Improves CX, Trust in Data

Banco BICSA, a Panama-based financial services firm, faced the challenge of integrating large volumes of transactional and account data stored on IBM DB2 on IBM i with its reporting and analysis systems on Microsoft SQL Server 2005. The bank’s manual text-retrieval process was time-consuming and error-prone at peak load, so Banco BICSA evaluated solutions and selected Syniti, deploying Syniti Data Replication to provide reliable, heterogeneous database synchronization with an easy-to-use GUI.

Syniti implemented an automated data replication and change-data-capture solution (trialed over two months) that eliminated manual transfers, kept IBM i and SQL Server systems synchronized, and delivered faster, more reliable data for BI and analytics. Banco BICSA reported a significant reduction in response time, 100% integrated business intelligence systems, improved user satisfaction and trust in data, and a marked decrease in labor and operational risk thanks to Syniti.
