Challenge
Simplyhealth runs Oracle RAC database clusters to ensure high availability of their claim management system serving millions of customers. Generating certain reports was taking over an hour, resulting in delays with data processing and unproductive wait time for Simplyhealth’s personnel.
The performance bottleneck was in a proprietary system that had a mix of SAS SSDs and hard-drives used as a shared storage for the databases.
The database team approached FlashGrid looking for a solution that could provide the required level of high availability database performance, and avoid increase in the infrastructure costs.
