PROJECT

Improve customer service by strengthening the power and availability of the information system.

CHALLENGES

Guarantee a high level of services to customers regarding the hosting of their data, offer customers an additional value-added production monitoring service, optimize production capacity to promote the group's growth and finally sustain material investments and integrate the Oracle solution to existing IBM infrastructure.

SOLUTIONS

To respond to the problem, Kappalys implemented a high data availability solution using Oracle Real Application Clusters and Oracle Data Guard. In order to rationalize skills, a single Oracle Database 10g database is set up. Traceability accessible to customers ensured throughout the production cycle, a value-added service for real-time production monitoring via an extranet, scalability of the system, simplified data administration thanks to Oracle Enterprise Manager and strong involvement and transfer of expertise from the Oracle/IBM Joint Solutions Center in Montpellier are other solutions put in place with the aim of meeting needs.

RESULTS

"The adoption of the latest Oracle 10g technologies integrated into our IBM iSeries servers optimizes our production capacities. We can offer our customers a reliable service capable of ensuring load increases. This latest evolution of our information system is a decisive competitive advantage in our market."
