Dell Case Study: CareerBuilder

Tags:
application servers

Overview CareerBuilder wanted to speed up the processing of business intelligence data to provide business managers and partners with more timely information on the status of their business. Older technology and third-party business intelligence software were not able to keep pace with the increasing amount of data and processing required to support the company's growth. Dell and Microsoft partnered to provide a new business intelligence solution based on Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft business intelligence software, Dell PowerEdge servers, and a Dell/EMC storage system.
