Vision Solutions has announced United Overseas Bank Malaysia Berhad (UOB Malaysia) has implemented ORION HA for i5/OS. The company made its selection based on the product's ability to deliver business continuity and IT resiliency throughout its advanced global network, Vision said.
UOB-Malaysia is a subsidiary of Singapore's United Overseas Bank-one of the largest foreign financial institutions in Asia with a network of 500 offices in 18 countries. UOB provides commercial lending, investment banking, treasury services, trade services, home loans, credit cards, wealth management, and insurance to thousands of clients.
This world-renowned financial institution thrives on its ability to meet the demands of today's wired world wherein customers expect information instantly. In order to maintain flexibility and meet customers' requirements, UOB said it made its selection based on what it found to be the most effective, secure, and scalable high availability solution on the market and the support offered by Vision Solutions.
"One of the reasons we chose ORION is because of the strength of vendor support. Banks cannot afford downtime, especially in case of a crisis," said Ms. Lee Yee Lih, vice president of UOB-Malaysia's IT division. "Having systems that offer high availability is crucial because we must respond quickly to ensure business continuity for our wide range of consumer and commercial clients."
The bank evaluated and tested various solutions beforehand. In the end, UOB selected Vision Solutions' ORION because it virtually eliminates downtime while ensuring data recovery and activation is error free. With the ability to scale across multiple environments, ORION HA ensures continuous, efficient and speedy services for the bank's entire commercial and consumer clientele.
"Not only did ORION meet our requirements, implementation was smooth," adds Ms. Lih. "The powerful software is easy to configure and allowed us to complete the mirroring process for our mission critical applications without any difficulty."
"We are honored such a prestigious financial institution as UOB-Malaysia chose ORION for its high availability solution," says Vision Solutions' vice president of sales for Asia Pacific, Allan Campbell. "By choosing our software, their talented IT team can now ensure unparalleled data resiliency and business continuity throughout their organization."
