PeopleSoft Applications and Solutions
PeopleSoft EntrepriseOne is an application suite targeted at companies in a wide range of industrial sectors.
Many companies have also implemented BoostEdge, combining these two solutions to obtain the most effective response to
their need for global Internet network deployment.
Find out how our customers have used BoostEdge to increase the productivity of their employees and control their
infrastructure costs.
Case 1: A corporate order management intranet
Application and customer requirements
A leading Taiwan-based electronics company implemented the PeopleSoft EntrepriseOne (J.D. Edwards OneWorld) solution on a central server supporting 200 web users distributed over four countries via WAN.
The network load resulting from the monthly entry of more than 10,000 order lines resulted in dramatic plunges in network performance.
Solution
After a series of comparative tests, the customer opted for the ActivNetworks acceleration solution on the basis of its direct integration into its infrastructure and
the outstanding level of performance offered to all remote users.
Results
Response times were improved by up to 70%.
Volumes of data transmitted over the network were reduced by between 53 and 83%.
Benefits for the customer
Increased employee productivity.
Enhanced sales performance, with more orders processed per hour.
Control over network costs.
No network upgrade required.
Case 2: An ERP/CRM solution deployed on an international intranet - satellite and terrestrial lines.
Application and customer requirements
One of the top 100 petrochemical companies deployed the PeopleSoft ERP/CRM solution on its international intranet, which was already handling a rather heavy load.
Employees in more than 150 offices throughout the world, many in the satellite network, were not satisfied with the application's response times and refused to use it.
Solution
ActivNetworks' acceleration solution was installed in reverse proxy mode on the application server.
Results
Response times for users were improved by 75%.
Bandwidth requirement was reduced by 75%.
Benefits for the customer
High service quality for all international users; the application has now been completely accepted.
Control over network costs and an investment of 100,000 USD has obviated the expenditure of over 10 million for a network upgrade.
