Children's Hospital Optimizes Oracle for Speedier Delivery of Patient Records

Overview Children's Hospital was experiencing long delays with their Cerner MillenniumÃ¯Â¿Â½ applications, affecting physician and nurse access to patient information. Using Confio IgniteÃ¯Â¿Â½ for Oracle, the DBA was able to isolate Cerner problem queries in the Oracle database and immediately improve service levels. Ignite enabled the DBA team to move from reactive and time consuming searches for the source of problems, to proactively finding and eliminating the source of service level problems for the hospital staff.
