LHDN’s Data Transformation Journey: From DB2 to Oracle with Exadata Implementation
Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri (LHDN) recently achieved a monumental success in transforming its data infrastructure by migrating from IBM DB2 to Oracle, powered by Exadata. This shift not only enhanced data processing capabilities but also elevated the agency’s capacity to support extensive, real-time data operations crucial for its tax administration responsibilities.
Migration and Exadata Implementation
The migration to Oracle Database was no small feat. Using a combination of Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC), Oracle Data Integrator (ODI), and Oracle GoldenGate, LHDN transitioned smoothly from its legacy DB2 system, ensuring data accuracy and minimizing downtime. The Exadata platform provided unmatched scalability and performance, enabling LHDN to handle large-scale data loads and complex queries with remarkable efficiency.
Achievements and Key Benefits
Enhanced Performance and Efficiency
With Exadata’s high-performance capabilities, LHDN noticed a significant reduction in processing times, allowing for faster data retrieval and processing across its applications.
Robust Support and Maintenance
Oracle’s ongoing support ensures LHDN’s database environment remains optimized and secure, while the Oracle RAC architecture provides high availability and robust disaster recovery options, which are essential for a national agency of this scale.
Seamless Data Integration
Leveraging Oracle Data Integrator and GoldenGate, the migration team ensured seamless data transformation and integration, enabling real-time data sync and consistency across the organization’s systems.
Ongoing Support and Maintenance
The collaboration of Oracle combined with ACT Technology Solutions comprehensive onsitesupport, LHDN now has a robust, scalable infrastructure with 24/7 maintenance options that ensure consistent performance, critical updates, and quick resolution of any issues.
This migration has positioned LHDN to deliver faster, more reliable services to the public, highlighting Oracle’s capabilities in managing large, mission-critical data operations. The LHDN success story stands as a powerful example of how Oracle’s solutions, from Exadatato advanced data integration tools, can transform and future-proof organizational data infrastructure.
The success of this project demonstrates ACT’s commitment to delivering tailored, high-impact solutions for complex data environments. With the new Oracle Exadata implementation, LHDN is now positioned to leverage data more effectively, improving both operational efficiency and service delivery to Malaysian taxpayers.
This successful migration and ongoing support highlight ACT’s role as a trusted partner in data transformation, helping LHDN transition to a more powerful and future-ready Oracle data platform.
