Our Customer<\/strong><\/h6>\n

This leading manufacturing company (LMC) is a top provider of industrial equipment, parts, sales, service and support.<\/p>\n

The Challenge: Leaving Legacy Behind<\/strong><\/h4>\n

LMC\u2019s commitment to quality and performance has generated substantial growth, and they’re now far and away the leader in their market vertical. Always innovative, LMC\u2019s new mobile applications enable customers to quickly diagnose industrial issues on the go.<\/p>\n

However, when it came to analyzing so much new data now available from multiple sources, LMC had difficulty consolidating multiple data integration layers into simplified data feeds. Powered by legacy tools and technologies, data feeds couldn’t deliver the dynamic results needed to ensure accurate and on-demand processing.<\/p>\n

How Prolifics Handled LMC\u2019s Challenge<\/strong><\/h4>\n

As a result, LMC decided to make the move from legacy to the Netezza database client. Prolifics has a long-standing partnership with LMC, beginning almost 10 years ago when our teams were brought in to assist in managing LMC’s original legacy system deployment.<\/p>\n

This new project meant doing multiple things at once: changing the way data was stored, handled, and reported across the organization’s infrastructure while simultaneously ensuring that end users didn’t notice a functional difference.<\/p>\n

First, Prolifics teams replicated data from existing warehouses and then began slowly rewiring everything underneath. Then all legacy components were retired, and the new framework took over.<\/p>\n

From the user perspective, performance improved without hampering day-to-day processes. From the standpoint of infrastructure management, the entire system was modernized to maximize the company’s ability to collect, analyze, and leverage data.<\/p>\n

The Results: More Data More Quickly<\/strong><\/h4>\n
