Kaminario's extreme performance scales for any size load
Tax Liability
The Problem –Incomplete Tax Data UpdatesComputing profit and loss from capital activities and the resulting tax implications is a critical application to any financial institution. As this information is extremely dynamic (it is common for over 90 percent of this information to be revised daily), updates are required on a nightly basis to present the freshest data for the next day’s business. In addition, most nightly batch processes for updating tax data are required for other business systems to make use of the data and present the most up-to-date tax implications to users for them to perform their jobs. If nightly batch processes cannot complete due to the long I/O wait times when updating and accessing fresh data, then users are not able to access the most current or accurate tax information, opening up a number of liability issues for the organization. I/O bottlenecks caused by data latency can put a stop to a number of operational business processes such as tax liability analysis that are dependent on current data to proceed. |
