R.L. Polk & Co. Improves Performance and Speed of Data Delivery to Boost Competitive Edge
Overview R.L Polk & Co. has served the automotive industry since 1922, providing a variety of analytical and statistical data services. R.L. Polk realized it needed to make a change to preserve its competitive advantage in the marketplace, amid significant industry, regulatory, and technology change. Previously, R.L. Polk ran its databases on a mainframe, which was very reliable but did not allow the company to deliver data in real-time to its customers. In late 2004, R.L. Polk embarked on a comprehensive business process reengineering program called re-FUEL and decided to replace its mainframe system with an open environment based on Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Real Application Clusters 10g. The company worked with its wholly owned subsidiary, RLPTechnologies, and Capgemini to develop the new system.
