Case Study
RI-Solution GmbH is a Munich-based IT service provider specialized in meeting the needs of retailers and wholesalers, with expertise in areas such as agriculture, technology, building materials and energy. Founded in 2002, the company currently employs about 200 people at its offices in Munich and Vienna, supporting customers in areas ranging from process analysis to feasibility studies, project planning and implementation, as well as the installation and maintenance of flexible, powerful and economical IT environments.
RI-Solution selected SAND/DNA over the other candidate solutions because of its ability to compress selected data effectively and still keep it accessible for analysis or for building new ODS Objects and InfoCubes. “Although the other solutions offered some functionality that was similar to SAND/DNA, the ability to keep highly compressed data readily accessible is a feature that is unique to SAND/DNA. The original size of the data that we've moved to nearline storage so far is around 650 GB, and the size of our nearline storage is only about 25 GB - meaning we've achieved a compression rate of 96%,” Gutberlet stresses.

“In our opinion, SAND/DNA Access offers the best solution for meeting the requirements of our IT department for flexible and efficient provision of information.” — Bardo Gutberlet, Head of SAP System Development / Management at RI-Solution.
