Exalytics Press Release

Customers

► American Capital

► Siemens

► Papa John’s

Page 12: Oracle partner spotlight   bi - epm partner thought leadership series

► Capabilities on both the infrastructure and functional side

► Ranzal has deep experience with Linux, the underlying OS of Exalytics; has

installed numerous times internally, as well as for clients.

► We’ve demonstrated to our customers that they can achieve better performance

using Exalytics than traditional hardware. In one example, a Process that took 8

Hours to complete took only 1.5 Hours on the Exalytics box.

► We’ve demonstrated we can virtualize the platform using Oracle Virtual Manager

(OVM). For example, this allows a customer to share Dev/Test on one box vs

having one dedicated one per environment.

► Using OVM a customer can now develop/test a new version of EPM on the same

hardware without having to have a costly hardware and install outlays.
