Success with Oracle Exadata
“Thanks to Oracle Exadata, we were able to build a secure, scalable,
and robust business intelligence and finance operations solution
powering group business transformation.
The solution has scaled up to encompass 4x the footprint we had

User confidence has been restored, as we have optimized our
operational reporting process 100%, producing more than 400,000
reports per month, and tripled finance operational transaction
processing while improving performance dramatically.”
