Isracard is the largest credit card company in Israel. The Isracard Group was established in 1975. The group has over 100,000 businesses which are partners to its credit card activity and honor the cards of both Israelis and tourists from abroad. More than two and a half million cardholders enjoy a wide range of services, benefits and offers.

The director of system software at the Isracard IT department, says TUC is a smart and impressive solution for automating DB2 object maintenance.

“The friendly and intuitive user interface provides the DBA the power to define maintenance processes and to track their progress easily and smoothly. We feel that this is a unique platform addressing all the different aspects of maintenance automation and allowing us to provide availability around the clock while making dynamic adjustments to our ever changing working environment”.

TUC includes a wide range of advanced capabilities designed to make the life of the DBA easier. For example, the user can set thresholds for triggering desired maintenance procedures using TUC’s dynamic intelligent rules. Intelligent triggers ensure that only those tables actually requiring processing are included in the process. The result is a huge savings in resource consumption.

Isracard implemented TUC with full integration of utility jobs into its batch application flow. The various applications trigger backups at business-significant points in time and wait for the utility jobs to complete before resuming processing. This kind of consistent backup can be used to automatically and reliably recover to the starting point in the event something goes wrong with application processing.
