By switching over to Oracle 11g and RAC, HealthSouth, a provider of inpatient rehabilitation services, has improved the performance and availability of their PeopleSoft applications. Specifically, with an upgrade of Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise applications and enterprise warehouse, HealthSouth was able to automate processes, accelerate reporting and planning, consolidate reporting, and deliver a highly available and fault tolerant service.
On the database side, HealthSouth is now on Oracle 11g, have put their data warehouse on a five-node cluster to meet performance and availability needs, and relies on Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) for database administrative tasks.
