Marek Case Study
Project background:
- 20 years of data impacting system performance
- Slowing JD Edwards noticeably
- Reports were taking longer to complete
- Negatively affecting the User Experience (UX)
Next steps:
- Find a solution to speed up JD Edwards
- Archive the data that was no longer needed
Results of the archiving project:
- Marek's Payroll run times improved by an average 49%
- JD Edwars system got faster. Marek’s CFO runs a large report annually. Following archiving the report completes in a matter of seconds.
La-Z-Boy Case Study
Project background:
- Large data volumes
- Continuous background re-indexing
- Many index jobs never finishing
- F0911 - General Ledger contained 1.5 billion rows
- 1.25 million rows being added daily
- Index maintenance jobs forced to terminate before completion during monthly database maintenance
Next steps:
- Rethinking why we keep data (not how we keep data)
- Production data to be retained when it is relevant and essential to the business process
- When data is no longer relevant, archive or purge
- Automate the process
- Approach the data systematically
Results of the archiving project:
- Fully automated archiving - "set in and forget it"
- 10 days of data removed per 1 day of data added
- Processing spread across the whole data set
- Re-indexing sped up (previously F0911 had never finished. Always self terminated after 30 days)
- 97% reduction in report run-time
Prior to archiving
- run the query once every quarter, because of length of time it takes
- heavy resistance amongst users to archiving
Post archiving
- run the query whenever needed, because it only takes 25 minutes!
- users requesting archiving after experiencing increase in performance
- enabling more frequent and efficient management in the business
- time previously absorbed by troubleshooting issues (in the business and in IT) is now used to add value to business prcesses.
