Oracle Applications and Solutions
Companies deploy BoostEdge solutions to optimize IT infrastructure enhance commercial performance and the quality of their
customer service on Oracle applications or the Oracle E-Business Suite. Costs are controlled and the productivity of those
using these optimized Oracle applications is increased.
Find out how our customers have boosted the performance of their:
Secure extranets, based on the Oracle 9i Application Server Portal
iProcurement-based intranets (Oracle E-Business Suite)
Case 1: Secure extranet based on the Oracle 9i Application Server Portal
Application and customers requirements
Our customer deployed a secure extranet application based on the Oracle 9i Application Server Portal.
This solution allowed its customers to place orders, track deliveries and view 3D product plans via an intranet access.
Several remote sites experienced a significant plunge in performance and very slow response times when using the new secure application.
Solution
The BoostEdge web acceleration device was installed transparently
in the network in front of the Oracle Application Service Portal to ensure consistent service quality to the company's customers.
Results
Response times for users were reduced by between 200 and 300%, depending on the bandwidth of the ADSL or leased lines.
Volumes of data transmitted over the network for this application have been halved, on average.
Benefits for the customer
Reduced costs and order-processing times
Its customers can now design special products online and track their creation
Full control over network costs with no network upgrade required
Case 2: iProcurement-based intranet (Oracle E-Business Suite)
Application and customer requirements
Our customer deployed the Oracle iProcurement application on its intranet. Internal buyers use the intranet to search for items (or services) and place orders.
The company's strategic objective was to automate all stages of the purchasing cycle for almost 1,500 users and to reduce and control its operating costs.
Response times on the company's complex intranet network were very slow.
A massive upgrade in network capacity was not an acceptable solution and was ruled out in view of the company's tight timescale.
Solution
The BoostEdge acceleration device was installed transparently in reverse proxy mode between the load balancing solution and the Oracle application server.
Results
Response times for users were reduced by between 200 and 300%.
Volumes of data transmitted over the applicationâs network were reduced by at least a factor of 4 (up to a factor of 22 for some requests).
Benefits for the customer
The customer achieved its objectives in terms of reducing costs and lead times throughout its entire purchasing cycle
High service quality for all remote users
Full control over network costs with no network upgrade required
