Operational Impact
The implementation of the Actian Ingres database platform has proven its reliability, performance, and resilience over the years. It has enabled the Revenue to leverage improvements in performance and efficiency. Critical applications that interact with the database can scale even more efficiently, with remote community instances of the database feeding information into a central consolidated database running on Actian Ingres Enterprise edition. The solution has also instilled confidence in the Revenue that Actian can handle the influx of information and transactions as a large percentage of Revenue’s customer base moves to mandatory e-filing and e-paying. The authority’s business model calls for greater inter-application integration and increased use of business intelligence and analytics. Actian products have long helped ensure that Revenue could fulfill its fiduciary duties properly and cost-effectively. | |
