Challenges Data volumes

Repeat storage and retrieval of the entire Insurance Application, bad access patterns

Inefficient and extremely complicated to scale Data Model

Large applications (multiple MB in size) Huge plans ~= 5MB

Combination Many updates to large documents = N * M problem Client side paging of huge data sets

Inadequate Infrastructure Infrastructure significantly taxed by poor application design

Tight coupling Cannot change one layer without affecting Java (and even

JavaScript) code

Insurance Application

Model Driven Architecture /UML Models





Operational Rigor

Fix the code

Standardize Infrastructure

Scale Out

Don’t point fingers!
