The votes are in, and we are delighted to award Handmark with a Kicfire analytic appliance. Handmark powers more than 50 mobile content storefronts globally with entertainment, information and productivity applications and service.
Currently, their reporting is backlogged largely due to poor query performance. Their data volumes are rapidly growing making the problem worse every day. They need to report vital business data such as ad-metrics, billing, purchasing, and user statistics. In addition, they need to run ad-hoc reports. The Kickfire analytic appliance will eliminate Handmark’s backlog by dramatically improving performance and providing the scale necessary to keep up with their data volumes.
The popularity of Handmark’s mobile content is driving that data volume. Ramesh Narayanan, Handmark Database Analyst, explains, “We employ very large tables such as our call and ad-metrics tables so database performance is not always up to our standards. We look forward to using Kickfire as part of our ongoing efforts to lead the mobile application industry in service and performance.”
We look forward to helping you achieve that goal Ramesh!
From everyone on the Kickfire team, we thank all the contestants, the judges and the community for making this contest so successful.
