“Prior to this initiative, the volume of paperwork was so high that our inspectors could spend days analyzing the documents. Both the Authority and the industry itself wanted to find a way to reduce inspection time while increasing the quality of the inspections. That required us to build a completely new system purpose-built for this need.”
“Given the financial nature of the transactions we process, we not only need multiple data centers for redundancy, we need those data centers to be fully synchronized in real time.”
"We can provide everything necessary to move a customer's infrastructure out to a hosted environment and manage their applications. In many cases, the proper management and operation of the database is one of their key concerns. And while the benefits of managed hosting are becoming obvious to the marketplace, it only works if we can guarantee that the database will operate optimally and cost effectively."
"The engineer not only solved my problem but gave me multiple ways that I could do it to help me choose what was right for my environment.”
"Recently, all financial institutions have been under great pressure to reduce IT costs. We have received many requests to reduce the time and cost of system operations, which is why, since 2019, we have been gradually migrating our services to and offering them in the cloud.”
“We had issues with the Oracle Database we were using at the time, including support and cost structure in a virtual environment. We had to carefully consider the higher licensing costs, which would affect the price of services we provide to our customers."
“As a result of picking up typical batch programs and verifying the compatibility between Oracle Database and EDB, we found that more than half of our programs could be migrated to EDB with almost no modification."
"During the actual migration, we encountered some compatibility issues, but Ashisuto's QA Support Service carefully investigated and answered our questions. As such we were able to quickly resolve the issues each time. Thanks to this, the project proceeded very close to schedule."
“We wanted to make it possible for ordinary people to buy a fantastic car without being experts. It was a big promise and some people thought it was impossible!”
"We needed the best PostgreSQL services and support organization in the world to support one of the largest PostgreSQL OLTP installations in the world."
"We only gave our DBAs very basic training on how to connect to Postgres and they were up and running very quickly."
“We anticipated our growth would be exponential given the size of the world’s listening population. And as a startup, we had limited resources, both financial and personnel, so a database-as-a-service was our best option to have a fully modern infrastructure.”
“The most essential requirement the Agency has always put forward is that its IT Department be effective and successful in supporting the Agency in pursuing its statutory objectives. We are the largest paying agency in Europe. During the last 25 years we aided over 2 million beneficiaries with a total of more than 200 bn Polish zloty. What we require of vendors of IT solutions is that they ensure availability and performance of our systems. Based on the long years of our experience we can now say that a skillful implementation of open source database solutions can successfully satisfy our critical requirements, and it allows us to optimize costs. Finally, it reduces the risk of our becoming dependent on a single vendor, as it can be the case with old-style proprietary software.”
“Thanks to the excellent collaboration with ARiMR’s IT team, the EDB implementation project can be considered a model to look up to for other organizations. In fact, it was a project unique not only in Poland but in Europe too. The deliverables of each stage of the technology adoption process were verified both in their business and technological aspects. Jointly with Linux Polska, we prepared pilot implementation projects as well as training courses for administrators and developers. Our collaboration resulted in the success of the database projects in spite of the truly demanding environment.”
“Normally before you make any major changes to a database—whether it’s an upgrade or any kind of enhancement—you want to start in the lower environments. That way you can test everything."
