Business Challenge
- The client had the older platform components like Galaxy-Tool, Cockpit and Mapping Editor running in Laser Server to handle the Logistics integration. It causes unavailability of support due to the Legacy platform.
- Their environment had a lack of transparency in viewing the logs for troubleshooting. It had minimal memory allocation which consequently reflects the performance in each transaction.
- It supports only the minimal number of file formats like GIF & EDI. And in protocols, it supports only the asynchronous mechanisms like FTP & VAN
- The virtual memory space were increased whenever the transaction count increases. Due to this the environment demanded frequent restarts.
- Maintaining the DECEDI environment is troublesome because of the unavailability of proper visualization tool.
How Avasoft helped?
- Suggested to migrate DEC/EDI to IBM platform with better configuration and support.
- Migrated the Old Laser server to Linux RED Hat server in order to increase the performance.
- Analyzed the list of active/inactive clients based on their file processing. It helped us to remove the unwanted project migrations to the new server.
- Provided the support for both synchronous & asynchronous protocols for the message transactions.
- We have provided the standard design analysis of IBM components like Sterling Integrator & IBM Integration bus for the new platform migration.
- We have suggested Sterling Integrator for the communication setup configurations & Standard EDI business validation using Sterling maps and BPs.
- Used IBM integration bus (IIB) for the database specific requirements, XML configurations & service oriented designs.
- Suggested to use the database tables for code list instead of hard coding. Configured standard archival policies & error monitoring alerts to take the necessary action of failed files.
