Town Sports International (TSI) operates fitness clubs in major United States metropolitan areas, including New York, Boston, Washington DC, and Philadelphia. TSI needed a high-availability, high-performance platform to host its updated Oracle E-Business Suite applications, but wanted to avoid the complex and lengthy deployment timelines typically associated with integrating servers, networks, and storage from multiple vendors, as well as the costs and data center space requirements associated with such projects. To meet its goals, TSI deployed an architecture based on two Oracle Database Appliances with the virtualized platform, one for test and one for production, as the platform for its deployment of Oracle Database with Real Application Clusters, Oracle VM and Oracle E-Business Suite.
TSI needed a high-availability, high-performance platform to host its updated Oracle E-Business Suite applications, but wanted to avoid the complex deployment process typically associated with integrating servers, networks, and storage from multiple vendors, as well as the costs and data center space requirements associated with such projects.
With help from Cintra Software and Services, Inc., a Platinum level member in Oracle PartnerNetwork, TSI deployed an architecture based on two Oracle Database Appliances with the virtualized platform, one for test and one for production, as the platform for its deployment of Oracle Database with Real Application Clusters, Oracle VM and Oracle E-Business Suite.
TSI’s Oracle Database Appliances are optimized to speed performance for Oracle E-Business Suite applications, delivering real-time intelligence into the company’s financials and inventory.
In addition to benefiting from reduced upfront capital expenses and reducing ongoing IT maintenance tasks by deploying a pre-integrated package of hardware and software, TSI also expects to benefit from the Oracle Database Appliance’s capacity-on-demand licensing model. The company has also adopted Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c for proactive in-depth database monitoring and alerting.
