SurveillanceDB™ Monitors
Critical Data Transactions for Leading FACETS Customers
— Proactive toolset reduces IT costs and provides SaaS platform
for healthcare industry providers—
HOUSTON,
Texas — May 18, 2010 — Bradmark Technologies,
Inc., an established provider of application solutions for
database management, announces its flagship product, Surveillance
DB, has been selected by industry leading
FACETS users, like Blue Care Network of Michigan, Kansas
City, Wellpoint and others as their monitoring solution of
choice to ensure overall system efficiency by reducing the
time to identify and resolve database issues and track departmental
usage.
SurveillanceDB™ provides essential tools for real-time monitoring,
issue identification and resolution, rules-based event management, data archiving
and reporting. The product’s architecture is client/agent based allowing
for n+1 scalability to an unlimited number of servers and the product also
monitors the OS to ensure data integrity. “The need to maintain a real-time
snapshot of daily transactions for corporate reporting and analysis becomes
increasingly apparent for leading HMOs and managed care companies,” said
Bradley Tashenberg, CEO, Bradmark Technologies. “These organizations
require mission-critical infrastructure solutions for uninterrupted availability,
optimal performance, and fast (even real-time) integration of data between
multiple systems and locations,” says Tashenberg.
Surveillance Monitors Critical Processes for BCN of Michigan
For more than 70 years Blue Care Network for Michigan (BCN)
has been dedicated to helping lower the cost of individual’s
insurance and improve Michigan's people, communities,
economy and health care system. It is Michigan’s
largest health maintenance organization, and a wholly-owned, nonprofit
subsidiary of BlueCross® BlueShield®. With
data management requirements typical of an HMO, BCN
utilizes a large data store encompassing membership
information
and complex insurance plan options that dictate the amounts paid by BCN
and its individual members. BCN is a hosted client
of TriZetto’s FACETS
software using Sybase Replication to replicate OLTP data from TriZetto’s
Denver site to their Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) operational
data store in Detroit. Operational reports are ran every evening against
the ASE database, as well as run ETL scripts that take the data from
this operational data store and populate our analytical data warehouse.
To run
efficiently, BCN deployed Surveillance to monitor and manage its data
stores for health and heart beat. “The Bradmark Surveillance client
gives us detailed exception information and statistics on data volumes
and latency.
It gives a complete and holistic view in a more pictorial way,” said
Raj Vunnam, Chief Architect, Blue Care Network of Michigan.
