Over the years the traditional setup with on premise geographically spread datacenters has made it increasingly
challenging for MGIS to scale, maintain, support agility and meet business requirements. In this session MGIS will
explain why they made the decision to embrace the cloud and start consolidating and transitioning datacenters to
Azure World Wide.

Optimizing Oracle Databases & Applications Gives Fast Food Giant Major GainsDatavail
A leader in the fast-food industry began experiencing issues with database performance and financial close processes that were having major effects on the business. By implementing optimization techniques, re-architecting systems, migrating to the cloud, and properly distributing server load, this fast-food giant was able to:
Cut server lag from 24 hours to five minutes during even the most active periods
Decrease time to implement global changes to menus from one week to overnight
Speed their financial close time frame
Significantly reduce the frequency of crashes and downtime
And more!
Watch this webinar to learn HOW this was achieved with our 5S performance tuning methodology, so you can do the same in your own environment.
This presentation will explore how you can effectively manage your hybrid Oracle Hyperion cloud deployment, with an emphasis on features like configuration management, automation and tracking and reporting.
We have added a specialized module to the base analytics system to ease the way for advanced users and decision-makers to access the data. The design of the base system allows for easy extraction, while the module and other functionality allows for the automation of extraction of data, in their original and anonymized form.
Are you on Oracle EBS Release 11.x, 12.0 or 12.1 and debating whether you want to continue upgrading? You are not alone. Jade Global developed Propero™ – an EBS Upgrade Solution to make the transition to any current R12 version easier for enterprises.
Database design to meet 3-year growth plan for Alpha Natural ResourcesRolta
With Alpha database failing to keep up with the demand and expectations for strong growth over the next 3 years, changes need to be made. Lower costs, faster responsiveness and improved scalability where needed to support ANR’s business objectives. Rolta selected Oracle Exadata as a solution to the problem. After implementation and deployment there were many advantages of the new system that were reported.

Designing a Framework to Standardize Data Warehouse Development Process for E...ijdms
Data warehousing solutions work as information base for large organizations to support their decision
making tasks. With the proven need of such solutions in current times, it is crucial to effectively design,
implement and utilize these solutions. Data warehouse (DW) implementation has been a challenge for the
organizations and the success rate of its implementation has been very low. To address these problems, we
have proposed a framework for developing effective data warehousing solutions. The framework is
primarily based on procedural aspect of data warehouse development and aims to standardize its process.
We first identified its components and then worked on them in depth to come up with the framework for
effective implementation of data warehousing projects. To verify effectiveness of the designed framework,
we worked on National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) project of Indian government and designed data
warehousing solution using the proposed framework.

PROCESS ENGINEERING
Mainline Information Systems | Storage and Data Services Practice
More often than not, your core operational storage and backup challenges lie in a failure of process, not
technology.
Service Features
• ITIL compliant
• Interconnected process framework
• Customizable to address your top ten missing processes
• Develop useable and auditable storage and backup operational processes
• Final process deliverable can be used to train new and existing employees
Service Benefits
• Reduce human error
• Enhance and reduce to execute the root cause analysis process
• Adopt auditable processes
• Link IT processes via a larger interconnected process model to enable
concurrent process development
• Enable delivery process training for your team
If you are searching for a wider assessment than the traditional storage health
check, our operational storage service delivery includes not only technology
review, but also process, organization and governance. In our experience, more
than 60% of our assessments show process failures as the top issue being
addressed by our clients.
You need an ITIL-based process model
If process failure is an issue you face, you might benefit from an Information
Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) – based process model. ITIL is one of
the most widely accepted approaches to IT service management; by leveraging
a process reference model or an interrelated model, you can tie together
methodologies from the Project Management Institute (PMI), ISACA (COBIT)
and ITUP (IBM). This can provide your IT organization with a more complete
process framework.
One option is to work with the experts at Mainline
By starting with up to ten processes, we can then share the complete process model framework, develop IDEF0 charts for each process, define each process and build
a swim lane diagram that defines your interactions with that process.

Mainline’s Storage Assessment methodology
consists of ten service areas that can be
delivered as a whole to exploit the inherent
synergy, or they can be delivered as stand-
alone services, depending on where you are
in the storage transformation journey.
Process Engineering provides
additional value when delivered with
the following services within the
methodology...
• Enterprise Storage Assessment with a
defined storage strategy reduces up-front
data gathering and time spent defining a
target environment and provides excellent
content in the prioritization of identified
gaps. Also see service components
synergistic with Enterprise Storage
Assessment.
• Infrastructure Application Landscaping
is for most a missing part of the storage
strategy - to work closely with application
teams to specifically address their wants
and needs.
• Infrastructure Data Analysis provides
an objective measure of the needs of
applications through the analysis of
metadata, offering a starting point for
application landscaping.
