Satellite Records Spins a Better Web Site with IBM DB2 for Linux
Overview Founded in the early 1990s as a producer, distributor, importer and retailer of dance music, Satellite Records of New York City has become a major player in this world of independent dance music. In 2001, Satelliterecords.com comprised 41 percent of the company’s overall sales of more than $7 million. However, the site relied upon an antiquated database platform that became inadequate. Satellite Records’ entire business - point-of-sale, ordering, receiving, the Web site and other crucial applications was originally managed by an internally developed enterprise business software solution running on Linux. With its new Web site, the company wants to boost sales by providing a richer online shopping experience, including features such as detailed product descriptions and the ability for customers to check their order status. That kind of functionality required a strong database platform optimized for Satellite’s chosen Linux operating environment.
