OuterBay Customers Motorola and Agilent to Present ILM Case Studies at Oracle Open World, Moderated by Charlie Garry of META Group

Market Wire, November, 2004

OuterBay, a leader in information lifecycle management (ILM) solutions for applications and databases, announced that Motorola and Agilent will discuss how implementations of an information lifecycle management (ILM) solution enabled them to monitor and manage data across applications, databases and storage infrastructure. Charlie Garry, META Group Senior Program Director, will moderate the presentation. The presentation will take place at Oracle Open World in San Francisco on Thursday, December 9th.

What:

Stagnant data in IT systems bogs down performance, and the varied nature of today's storage infrastructure environments and data types requires a new approach to ensure the most effective utilization of storage technologies for the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO). Global 1000 companies like Motorola and Agilent rely on Oracle E-Business Suite 11i to run their operations. Learn from the experts:

--  How is Motorola managing its 2.5 TB Oracle E-Business Suite
    environment?
--  How is Agilent managing 90-100 GB per month growth and 10  copies of
    the production environment?
    

This presentation will explore how an ILM solution can help enterprises improve application performance while maintaining access to data required by business users and ensuring permanent access to data that must be retained by law. Attendees will learn the business case and drivers for pursuing transactional and fixed content data archiving and subsetting solutions and how ILM is enabling enterprises such as Motorola and Agilent to manage data through its lifecycle to:

--  Restore high user performance
--  Proactively manage data growth
--  Reduce storage and infrastructure costs
--  Reduce downtime for applying patches and upgrades
