Sunnyvale, Calif. and Fremont, Calif. (September 5, 2006) - Solix Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions, and Sierra Atlantic, a leader in business process-based integration and enterprise application optimization, today announced a global partnership to provide the industry's first and only active archiving solution that supports Oracle® Process Manufacturing. Sierra Atlantic becomes a global systems integrator for Solix Technologies, responsible for marketing and system integration of the Solix ARCHIVEjinniTM unified platform active archiving solution.
Oracle Process Manufacturing is an end-to-end enterprise application that automates the entire production cycle for process-based manufacturing. Examples of products that are created using process manufacturing include: metals, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, paint, food and beverages. Sierra Atlantic has been involved with Oracle Process Manufacturing for several years. They are one of Oracle's leading development partners and an Oracle Certified Partner in the Oracle PartnerNetwork. The company is a recognized industry leader in business and technology consulting for process manufacturing applications, with more than 750 satisfied customers since beginning operations in 1993.
"The expertise Sierra Atlantic has with Oracle Process Manufacturing applications makes them a perfect partner for Solix," said Burt Salop, vice president of worldwide ales and alliances, Solix Technologies. "Their installed base of Oracle Process Manufacturing customers has a pent up need for archiving. As an industry leader in process manufacturing applications, Sierra is the best choice to successfully deliver our active archiving solution to Oracle Process Manufacturing users."
Solix ARCHIVEjinni for Oracle Process Manufacturing is the first archiving solution that addresses the intricacies of Oracle Process Manufacturing applications, such as protecting secret recipes and formulations while simultaneously making them available via a keyword search. This is achieved by using a unified platform that can organize, manage, archive and search all types of data: structured (from applications), semi-structured (email), and unstructured (documents and images). By implementing Solix ARCHIVEjinni for Oracle Process Manufacturing, users can manage their entire archiving process from a single application, making it easy to reduce storage costs, improve application performance and comply with regulations.
\"The ability to easily and efficiently archive data in Oracle Process Manufacturing applications has been critically lacking," said Brian P. Rogan, senior vice president strategic business and marketing, Sierra Atlantic. "Process manufacturers can have up to one hundred years of legacy data. This vast amount of data can negatively impact system performance. By implementing active archiving, performance is improved, storage costs are reduced and enterprises can more easily comply with the stringent and complex regulations that they face in manufacturing pharmaceuticals, food, beverages, chemicals and paint. It is no surprise that Solix, known as an innovator in the ILM market, would be the first with an Oracle Process Manufacturing archiving solution. As their partner, we can now offer our customers a best-in-class active archiving solution."
Sierra Atlantic becomes the newest member of the Solix Global Partner Network. The Solix Global Partner Network was established in 2005 to enable the company to closely collaborate with partners in order to deliver a higher level of service and an optimal approach to solving application and storage challenges. Other members include: Wipro, DBORA, 3S Soft, Columbia Storage, IngenuitE, Millennium Information Technologies, Path Infotech, Infomart and Bahwan Cybertek.
"The combined expertise of Solix Technologies and Sierra Atlantic will be of great value to the process manufacturing industry as more and more companies are in need of solutions to reduce storage costs, improve system performance and simplify regulatory compliance," said Doug Souza, Vice President, Process Manufacturing Development, Oracle. "For the first time, Oracle Process Manufacturing customers will have access to archiving capabilities that will not only enable them to increase productivity but will help improve the overall agility of their businesses."
