Prosieben Goes To Primetime With Informix Dynamic Server (IDS) 11

ProSiebenSat.1 Produktion, Germany’s largest privately-owned television company, has changed the channel of its IT infrastructure with the help of IBM’s IDS 11.

ProSieben, an IBM Informix customer for 10 years, has improved business operations with the help of the IDS 11 data server. Since upgrading its technology to IDS 11, ProSieben has seen a reduction in database administrator workloads, a 50 percent increase in response time, greater business stability and increased operational efficiency. Using IDS 11, ProSieben can also benefit from IDS’s classic features, including reliability, scalability and availability.

“The high reliability, new features and superb transaction throughput in the next generation Informix Dynamic Server will help us to increase response times by up to 50 percent,” said Markus Holzbauer, senior administrator of media & production systems, ProSiebenSat.1 Produktion. “This is critical in ensuring that we can effectively support innovative new services and aggressive growth.”

ProSieben is an example of a growing number of companies profiting from IBM technology innovations.
