Client Success Stories / Case Studies
See How We Drive Transformation
Challenge
A leading financial institution faced critical performance issues with their Oracle trading databases, causing latency in transaction processing and risking regulatory compliance during peak trading hours.
Our Solution
To create a more intelligent and proactive database environment, we implemented AI-powered performance monitoring using machine learning within Oracle Enterprise Manager. This enabled the deployment of autonomous agents for real-time query optimization and established predictive scaling to anticipate trading volume spikes. Additionally, we automated routine maintenance tasks using Ansible, significantly improving operational efficiency.
Impact
Our database optimization initiative successfully achieved a 70% reduction in query response times for critical trading transactions, which eliminated performance-related incidents during peak market hours. This was complemented by a 45% reduction in administration overhead through automation, while simultaneously improving regulatory compliance with consistent performance reporting.
