Organizations such as Angelcom, Comic Relief, Interactive One, and ProQuest, have implemented Oracle Database 11g to power their enterprise applications. Mission Critical Deployments Based in Bogotá, Colombia, Angelcom S.A. is a leader in collections technology for Mass Passenger Transit systems. The company developed, implemented and maintains the IT platform and collections procedures for Bogotá’s mass transit system – TransMilenio. Angelcom S.A. migrated to Oracle Database 11g to deliver a highly available, robust infrastructure in support of TransMilenio. With Oracle Database 11g, Oracle Partitioning and Oracle Advanced Security, Angelcom S.A. improved online access to real-time transit system data across the organization, reduced the time to backup their transactions by 95 percent, and further secured the transit system’s 4.5 million daily transactions, respectively. Angelcom S.A. also deployed Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Standard Edition One to improve the analysis of operational data and accelerate decision-making. Comic Relief is a U.K.-based charitable organization working to end poverty and social injustice by raising funds through the power of entertainment. The charity’s upgrade to a clustered Oracle Database 11g system has enabled it to increase the speed of its transaction processing, improve service to donors, and drive IT innovation. Specifically, Comic Relief has reduced its reliance on third-party vendor tools and skill sets, to cut system management overhead through the use of Oracle Database 11g’s automated database management capabilities. Interactive One is the digital division of Radio One, Inc. (NASDAQ:ROIAK and ROIA). The division has deployed Oracle Database 11g, Oracle Unbreakable Linux, Oracle VM, and Oracle Enterprise Manager to power the infrastructure for its fast growing social networking and media properties. Spanning 10 Web sites, including the popular BlackPlanet.com, the largest online community for African Americans, Interactive One provides a rich, integrated online experience for more than 25 million users delivering six hundred fifty million full-page views per month. Oracle Database 11g, along with Oracle Partitioning and advanced database features such as connection pooling, has helped to improve the performance of Interactive One’s databases and enable them to scale to support many more Web servers than ever before. Ann Arbor, Mich.-based ProQuest creates specialized information resources and technologies that propel successful research and lifelong learning. A global leader in serving libraries of all types, ProQuest offers the culmination of experience from many respected brands, including CSA™, UMI®, Chadwyck-Healey™, SIRS®, and eLibrary®.
