Considering that IP services are highly complex and expensive to launch, manage and configure, GO implemented Oracle because of its strengths in providing an end-to-end approach that simplifies and enhances our IT environment," added Craig Humphreys, Vice President, Information Technology at GO.
Zagiel Financial Services, Poland, has enhanced the scalability and performance of its IT systems thanks to Oracle Partitioning. Oracle is the database of choice for all the company's transactional systems. "After the implementation of Oracle Partitioning we recorded a substantial increase of all our databases performance. The data processing speed has increased from 3 up to over 10 times. An additional benefit is that less disk capacity is required for the database, which results in huge savings in the area of data storage," stated Andrzej Gryciuk, Chief Oracle DB Administrator, Zagiel SA.
