What do we do?

We provide automated solutions for cloning Oracle databases and applications. We deliver huge savings within your IS department, because our solutions reduce the time it takes for your technical staff to deliver clones. Not only do these solutions save you time, but they improve your operational efficiency as they help you reduce system downtime. Check out our dramatic return on investment (ROI).

How do we do it?

• Most Oracle sites have Database Administrators (DBAs).
• Some have hundreds.
• As much as 30% of a DBA's time can be spent cloning Oracle databases and applications.
• Manual clones can each take 1-3 days to produce.
• Our solution, XClone, automates that process.
• A typical Oracle site with several DBAs can save hundreds of thousands of dollars each year using XClone.
• The time saved can be used to improve the applications and systems you are providing to your business.

How do you benefit?

Babboo saves you time - XClone delivers dramatic time savings over manual cloning scripts, or expensive replication-based hardware and software solutions.

Babboo saves you money - by automating every step of the cloning process, XClone leaves your DBAs free to undertake other key work, like performance tuning, or problem resolution. This results in faster delivery of new, more reliable software to your business.

Faster time to market - Babboo helps you deliver solutions faster; gives you more control over project lifecycles; helps overall projects to be delivered on time, within budget and exactly to your customer's needs.

Better applications - Babboo allows you to concentrate on other, valuable elements of your projects, like more rigorous testing, or better user acceptance processes.

How important is automated cloning?

The dynamics are similar to backup and recovery:

• everyone does backups.
• everyone used to do those backups manually, with people working late to load the right sequence of tapes.
• no-one does that nowadays, thanks to backup automation products from companies such as EMC and Veritas.

Babboo does for cloning what Media Management companies have done for backups.
