Background

As the first national insurance company of Turkey founded under the leadership of i§bank; Anadolu Sigorta A.S. has played an important role in the development of the insurance industry in Turkey and in the modernization of the country’s socioeconomic environment in parallel with that development ever since it was founded. Anadolu Sigorta A.S. has 2500 agencies in Turkey and its consolidated net profit also reached 324.5 million TL in 2018 and has almost 3 million policyholders.

Challenge

Anadolu Sigorta A.S. uses UAT and PREP environments to provide Production quality data to teams that require mostly for UAT and Bug fix purposes. However, during Delphix installation they were also facing storage shortage challenges due to the fact that they were in parallel planning to move their data center.

These shortages were causing difficulties in environment and database creation requests and sometimes it would take more than a week to export/import a database from Production systems. These problems were either being solved by putting in extra operational work load or delaying the tests and SDLC cycles.
