Partners in Excellence for Business Intelligence Hyperion

Together, Hyperion and Unisys provide customers with a seamless way to expand Hyperion’s powerful Business Performance Management (BPM) and BI capabilities for maximum impact. Hyperion is a global leader in BPM.  Many large organizations already rely on Hyperion software to translate strategies into plans, monitor execution and provide insight to improve financial and operational performance. Unisys delivers proven scalability to meet large-scale financial consolidation, business intelligence, and information delivery requirements, with IT Optimization for BPM.

IT Optimization for BPM

To be effective, BPM must move beyond the boardroom and the finance organization.  Successful BPM solutions inevitably grow.  Over time more and more users apply increasingly sophisticated analyses to larger volumes of back-end data with greater frequency and they tell their peers to try the same.

The technical scope of addressing growing and evolving business needs requires managing a diverse set of I/O, processing functions and workloads in a coordinated, consistent way across the entire enterprise.  Scalability is paramount to the successful long-term deployment of a Hyperion solution. IT Optimization for BPM from Unisys and Hyperion delivers maximum scalability with reduced implementation risk and TCO through a proven architecture that consolidates applications, services and database tiers on high-end Intel®-based ES7000 Model 7600R server solutions —meeting the diverse needs of broader populations with ease.

Key Features and Benefits

• The ability to deliver performance when and where it’s needed. BPM technology won’t do much good if users can’t get reasonable response times from the system and/or aren’t working with fresh data. By ensuring the scalability of BPM performance, Hyperion running on the Unisys ES7000 Model 7600R family of servers ensures the benefits of BPM can be reaped across the enterprise.
• Reduced cost and higher ROI. The efficiency of Hyperion running on the Unisys ES7000 Model 7600R server family reduces the cost of BPM infrastructure in terms of both initial capital expenditure and ongoing ownership. This eliminates a leading cause of budget over-runs and maximizes overall project ROI.
• Accelerated time-to-benefit. As a proven combination, Hyperion on the Unisys ES7000 Model 7600R Server eliminates the project delays that typically result from “oneoff” integrations. Its fast, incremental scalability also accelerates the roll-out of additional BPM applications across the enterprise over time. Thus, in both cases, it enables the business to reap the benefits of BPM more quickly and with greater certainty.
• Better IT resource allocation. Every IT department’s resources—including budgets, people and data center floor space—are limited. By putting less of a strain on these resources, Hyperion and Unisys allow them to be allocated elsewhere to support other high-value IT initiatives.
• Greater investment protection. No one can predict what the future holds. A business acquisition or stunning market success can require an IT organization to expand its BPM capabilities in totally unforeseen ways. Hyperion and Unisys ensure the ability to meet such unexpected challenges without having to scrap existing technology investments.
• Peace of mind. Business is risky and stressful enough. The last thing any company needs is another source of uncertainty and headaches. As a proven solution delivered by two established technology partners, Hyperion and Unisys provide peace of mind to BPM project leaders and their teams.

IT Optimization for BPM offers concrete benefits to any business seeking to fully leverage BPM in order to improve decision-making, gain competitive advantage and boost profitability across the enterprise.
