OW2 ProActive Workflows & Scheduling used in a major Cloud Migration in UK


OW2 ProActive Workflows & Scheduling used in a major project of Digital Transformation with Cloud Migration in UK. ActiveEon and Legal & General joint talk at Cloud Expo Europe,London, March 16th. Read the talk announcement in the Cloud Expo Europe Programme:

Legal & General is engaged into a very innovative Digital Transformation, which goes from the services offered to its customers to the management of its IT Applications and Infrastructure. As part of this strategic evolution, this talk presents how L&G together with ActiveEon Software and Services was able to replace 2 schedulers (Tibco DataSynapse and IBM AlgoBatch) with ProActive Workflows & Scheduling, and migrate the Solvency application to the Azure Cloud. A key aspect has been the ability to pipeline CPU-intensive tasks with I/O intensive ones. This alone allowed for 10% overall savings in runtime and grid resources, and for the high priority risk reports to be made available to customers 3x faster than the previous solution (16 hours down to 5 hours).
