whitepaper SAP Business Information Warehouse Facilitates Quick, Accurate Reporting0000-00-00 SAP
  In a highly competitive, international financial market, managers must quickly assess opportunities and risks across all levels of the bank. To do so, they require ever-faster access to more accurate and consistent information unavailable from traditionally disparate applications. The Julius Baer Group deployed SAP Business Information Warehouse - a component of SAP Business Intelligence, which is a key offering within SAP NetWeaver - to enable global access to such data.

whitepaper A Strategic Approach to Protecting SCADA and Process Control Systems2007-07-01 IBM
  Process Control Systems (PCS) refer to the overall set of systems that remotely monitor and measure remote sensors from a centralized location. These sensors also typically possess some type of automated response capability when certain criteria are met. A subset of PCS systems that manage systems over very large geographic areas are typically referred to as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems or SCADA systems. SCADA systems make up the critical infrastructure associated with electric utilities, water and sewage treatment plants, and large-scale transportation systems like interstate rail. This paper provides an overview of the security weaknesses present in SCADA and other Process Control Systems, the potential impact of those weaknesses and recommended steps for assessing and securing SCADA systems.   
whitepaper OAG Reduces Costs by Automating Data Transfer Operations2007-02-01 Oracle
  OAG receives data from the vast majority of airlines operating flights worldwide. This data, received in a variety of formats and with varying levels of consistency, needs to be cleaned, validated, stored, and redistributed to OAG's clients. The data was previously stored on a set of mainframes that ran custom-developed programs. OAG recently launched a migration program, to transfer the applications to DB2 RDBMS on IBM/AIX platforms. As part of its migration strategy, OAG decided to abandon proprietary technologies and custom scripts and to use an open system with an industry-standard RDBMS. The unique approach of Oracle Data Integrator [formerly called Sunopsis] is that it does not use a proprietary engine but rather relies on RDBMS engines to transform and process data.

whitepaper Automotive Finance Corporation Uses Data Warehouse to Increase Business Volume2007-02-01 Oracle
  To provide unparalleled service to each and every customer, AFC developed a state-of-the-art information system, which has been in operation since 2000. AFC's system is based on Oracle databases running on Sun Solaris servers. The company wanted to turn the large database into an information base system to analyze which dealers are using the services, how they are using them, and where the profitability lies. To get the required data - stored in Oracle databases and Excel spreadsheets - into the data warehouse (also based on Oracle), AFC needed an efficient Extraction, Transformation, and Loading (ETL) tool that could interface with all its systems and perform the data transformation. In the end, the company narrowed down their choice to three tools, including Oracle Data Integrator.
