What Was the Reason?
A national retail chain faced major operational challenges due to database inefficiencies across its POS, e-commerce, and inventory management systems. Frequent slowdowns in transaction processing, inconsistent inventory updates between stores and warehouses, and high database maintenance costs were causing revenue loss and poor customer experiences. Additionally, the lack of real-time data synchronization resulted in stockouts, overselling, and disruption of supply chain, impacting both customer satisfaction and profitability.
