MavenWire Offers with Dell Servers
Business Need
MavenWire needed a high availability hosting platform to power the compute-intensive Oracle Transportation Management application for customers that could potentially lose hundreds of thousands of dollars for each hour of downtime.
Solution
The company deploys a dedicated environment for each customer consisting of Dell™ PowerEdge™ servers and Dell PowerVault™ MD3000 direct-attached storage.
Getting products from point A to point B is a perennial challenge for those whose businesses depend on distribution networks. The logistics puzzle starts with loading the truck at the factory. It continues with decisions about whether travel by other modes of transportation might offer better value or faster delivery options. And it becomes quite complicated when it factors in the optimal volume of product in every container for the particular route the container will take. Yet optimizing these variables is necessary to ensure that products reach their destination cost-efficiently and quickly.
Fortunately, these complex calculations can be automated in a software solution: Oracle Transportation Management (OTM). OTM delivers robust transportation planning and execution capabilities to shippers and third party logistics providers. It integrates and streamlines transportation planning, execution, freight payment and business process automation across all modes of transportation, from full truckload to complex multileg air, ocean and rail shipments.
Fr expert assistance in implementing OTM and for hosting the application to keep it available 24x7, companies turn to MavenWire. Based in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, MavenWire was founded by the logistics experts who were part of the team that wrote the OTM application at G-Log, before Oracle acquired it. The consulting team at MavenWire has in-depth experience in both transportation--providing logistics and supply chain consulting services to blue chip companies--and software applications.
