Case Study: AUM Investment Firm improves Oracle performance and cuts license costs with Tessell

$36B AUM Investment Firm Optimizes Oracle Estate While Improving Performance

The customer, a major investment firm with $36 billion in assets under management, was struggling with poor performance and high costs from its Oracle databases hosted on OCI while its applications ran on Azure. This multi-cloud architecture caused significant latency, connection drops, and unexpectedly high Oracle license costs, which negatively impacted its digital customer experience. The firm turned to Tessell to resolve these challenges.

Tessell provided its Oracle PaaS on Azure, migrating the firm's databases to be colocated with its applications. This solution included Tessell's consolidation service to optimize licenses and improve performance. The results were immediate: the firm achieved a 40% improvement in database query runtimes, a 30% faster API response time, and a 50% reduction in CPU usage, which significantly lowered Oracle licensing costs.
