Business Wire, Dec 19, 2007
Company Expects to See Immediate Production Environment Performance Improvements
CHICAGO -- Applimation, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise data management solutions for packaged and custom applications, announced today that it has been selected by Silgan Plastics Corporation, a leading supplier of consumer goods packaging products, to improve the performance of its Oracle E-Business Suite applications. Silgan Plastics Corporation selected Applimation Informia Archive to improve the production environment performance of its most heavily used Oracle E-Business Suite modules including Inventory, WIP, BOM and Payroll.
Silgan Plastics Corporation has large amounts of transaction data due to its extensive market coverage from personal care to industrial and food markets. As a long-standing user of Oracle Applications, Silgan Plastics Corporation understands the necessity of maximizing its investment in their ERP system. Six years of accumulated transaction data in the production database has slowed the performance of Oracle Applications. Choosing Applimation's Informia Archive solution enables Silgan Plastics Corporation to immediately improve performance and reduce further hardware investments to manage their data growth requirements.
"Applimation was Silgan Plastics Corporation vendor of choice given its depth of experience with Oracle E-Business Suite," said Rick Meuser, Director of Information Technology for Silgan Plastics Corporation. "We are happy to be included in their Oracle reference customer list."
Applimation Informia Archive lowers infrastructure and maintenance costs, streamlines application upgrade processes and helps meet regulatory requirements by identifying inactive data and archiving it in online data stores that are seamlessly accessed through the Oracle E-Business Suite user interface. The Informia Archive Dashboard adds further value by enabling Oracle Applications administrators to continuously monitor the distribution of data and optimize application performance through proactive data archiving.
Said Bob Markese, CEO, Applimation, "We are certain that we can add immediate value to Silgan Plastics Corporation through our experience with providing effective archiving solutions, tailored to fit individual data management needs."
