4. Centralized data storage
The system data storage is based on a
infrastructure with a capability of more than
16 TB.
Software applications running on Say 2000i
base platform are managed by many
application servers and stored on several DB
servers

7. Data storage
Data storage platform covers the needs of
Central Database and storage of all data in
structured way assuring reporting
functionalities to Say 2000i authorized users.
The data storage include ‘the financial
statements’ of all the main credit ordinators
for longer time frames, in order to ensure a
functional data fund available for statistical
needs.

9. Data dissemination
Development of dedicated platform including
a archives of structured data.
Data flows from Say 2000i data storage to
dedicated archive for statistical publications is
updated on demand running scripts of queries
and statistical quality filtering.
A specific data base for data dissemination on
web site needs to be dedicated in line with
security standards.

12. Why dedicated IT platform/ Data Storage
• drive down the cost of processing reducing
budgetary expense
• to raise the level of service
• to enhance overall control
• speed of data access
• improve accuracy of data
• Integration of data
• Interaction with users via web portal

13. The objective of interoperability
Dedicated IT platform and data storage provides
computation applying statistical controls, eventual
software applications or statistical tools, dedicated
data access,data management and dedicated
storage resources without requiring access to the
computing infrastructure of Say 2000i.
