Oracle Corporation and Unisys Corporation announced today that they will adapt key Unisys payment solutions to utilize Oracle® Database10g and Oracle interMedia. The agreement will extend both organizations' ability to deliver a comprehensive enterprise payments solution that helps financial services institutions improve their efficiency, profitability and risk management, elevate customer satisfaction and enhance shareholder value. Banks historically have struggled to determine the true enterprise-wide cost and profitability of their payments operations as most systems manage information around individual product lines, eliminating the ability to aggregate and analyze data. By combining information, regardless of the type of payment or its form, into an "all-payments" engine and archive, Unisys and Oracle will allow financial institutions to import, capture, store, manage and use transactional data more intelligently.
