Ensure performance and availability of databases for global services
"While a global electronics manufacturer was operating a sales website that provided services to 76 countries on a public cloud, service delays occurred repeatedly due to poor performance and availability issues with the open source-based database. The client was able to successfully open a global service by installing Oracle DB on Samsung Cloud Platform's stable, high-performance Bare Metal Server product and utilizing Samsung SDS' cloud conversion technology."
Global e-CommerceChallenge
The client, a global electronics manufacturer, had built and operated a single website in a cloud environment that provided sales services to 76 countries around the world.
The client's sales website consists of a front-end system that customers directly access, a database that stores various information, and a back-end system that handles batch processing tasks, searches, etc. After converting the back-end system, which requires stability and high performance, to an open source-based database in a third-party cloud environment, there were performance, functionality, and availability issues frequently occurred, resulting in repeated delays in overall sales website.
The client considered returning to Oracle DB, which had previously been used stably in an on-premise environment, and sought to find a way to stably switch to Oracle DB, a commercial database, in a cloud environment to operate global services in a short period of time.
