Thanks to Teradata, a
manufacturer of high-tech
products experienced a 300
percent improvement in query
performance.
estimated conservatively that it decreased revenue losses
by 0.5 percent just on that one mart, which equals a
$600,000 increase in revenue.
A high-tech manufacturer: Immediate and real benefits
A manufacturer of high-tech products for both consumer
and business markets was utilizing Oracle9i Database and
Oracle Database 10g and 11g in 28 data marts to store
all company data, including information on sales and
marketing, manufacturing, HR, and product design. Not
surprisingly, the company couldnt get a complete view of
its business. Moreover, reporting performance was slow
and hindered the ability of users to make timely decisions.
To top it all off, maintaining this fragmented infrastructure
was simply too expensive.
In addition, the firm was having other technical problems
with its Oracle environment. It was missing SLAs for
morning reports and had to build numerous timeconsuming aggregates on a daily basis. Also, because
of the fragmented environment, there was inconsistency
in the data pulled from various data marts. The firm
wanted to build a centralized enterprise data warehouse
infrastructure but worried that the Oracle platform
couldnt scale to meet its needs.
Together, all the data marts held 21 terabytes of data,
with Informatica ETL as well as custom PL/SQL ETL, and
encompassed everything from repair-center tracking,
customer service, orders and bookings, sales and billing,
customer analytics, and marketing campaigns. There were
thousands of daily data load jobs, with more than 1,500
tables. SAP BusinessObjects and SAS software were used
for reporting from 22 source systems with 500 interfaces.
The firm evaluated Oracle and Teradata Database side
by side in a three-month proof of concept (POC) and
determined that Teradata Database was the best choice
due to overall function, performance, and total cost of
ownership (TCO) advantages.
