A Wall Street giant dramatically reduces its risk exposure and puts a lid on spiralling out-of-support costs
The Bank's compliance department generates nearly a thousand reports for submission to various regulatory agencies. In addition ad-hoc reports as and when required by regulators keeps adding up.
Oracle Discoverer was the platform used for reporting and ran on an enterprise data warehouse. The lack of user friendly interface and an unacceptably high time taken to generate the reports were the inherent disadvantages. What added to the sense of urgency was that Oracle Discoverer support was being discontinued by end of Q1 2013.
The challenge was to make available the existing thousand strong reports on the new COGNOS platform and set up a framework that would empower users to generate ad-hoc reports or change any of the existing reports with minimal programming.
Based on the scope, complexity and time constraints, Technosoft adopted a tool based approach to reduce the manual effort involved in the migration process. This tool converts the existing metadata model in Oracle Discoverer to the COGNOS framework. Once models for all 45 business areas were migrated, the reports were then created in COGNOS Report Studio. The team (onsite-offshore model) leveraged our synthetic data creation tool to test the migrated reports offshore.
Apart from migration of existing reports, Technosoft trained the users on COGNOS to generate their own ad-hoc reports using Query Studio, but leveraging the metadata models already created.
Outcomes realized
- Tool based migration of the model ensured accuracy of the target model
- Reduced by 30% the efforts
- Collapsed the timelines by three months
- Cost reduction of 30%
Web services creation for a global financial services company
The project involved creating web services to handle accounting information. It would provide clients with the ability to create,monitor and view account balances. It would also enable online transactions, transfer funds, view invoices and pay bills. A critical feature was the support for wired transfer of money to other bank accounts as well as allowing account holders the ability to edit their personal information.
