API is a provider of products and services to branded and independent community pharmacies. It provides distribution of products to pharmacies through its network of distribution centers and regional branches in Australia.
API Pharmacy Division has completed the initial phase of its enterprise data warehouse program, including the migration and consolidation of data from its X-Series SQL Server environment into its Teradata Data Mart Appliance.
"Our Teradata Data Mart Appliance is the beginning of our enterprise data warehouse implementation program and has already resulted in faster and more accurate information delivery to the Pharmacy Division," said Brett Hart, Application Manager, API Pharmacy Division. "Since replacing our SQL Server-based environment with Teradata, we are gaining access to significant new insights and opportunities to do business more efficiently and effectively. Our next step is to establish a true enterprise data warehouse, by bringing in detailed data from our Retail and Pharmacy businesses."
"API's implementation is a great example of how easily and quickly our customers can get unmatched price performance for real-world business intelligence applications - from Teradata, the global leader," said Noel Pettitt, VP of Teradata for Australia and New Zealand. "API is a great example of customers of all sizes leveraging the power of Teradata and our new Platform Family."
The Teradata Purpose-Built Platform Family includes the Teradata Data Mart Appliance, the Teradata Extreme Data Appliance, the Teradata Data Warehouse Appliance, and the Teradata Active Enterprise Data Warehouse platforms.
Brett Hart said he will present API's case study, "Project Ventolin - Resuscitating the API Data Warehouse" at the Teradata Universe in Sydney on March 10, and Melbourne on March 12.
