Enrollment
Banner by Ellucian running on the Oracle Exadata
Database Machine has increased the performance of
enterprise applications tenfold at Higher Colleges of
Technology (HCT), and is enabling it to implement new
applications and access current data to better support
its students, faculty, and staff.
“The Higher Colleges of Technology are constantly
growing and developing, which means that our
faculty, staff, and students all require their tasks to be
completed in the quickest and most efficient manner
possible. With this agreement, we have the resources
to better support them to reach their goals,” said Dr.
Tayeb Kamali, Vice Chancellor of the HCT.
The Higher Colleges of Technology in Abu Dhabi is
the largest higher education system in the United
Arab Emirates, supporting more than 18,000 students
and 2,000 staff members on 17 campuses. It is
the first institution in the Middle East to implement
Oracle Exadata for Banner. Ellucian worked closely
with Oracle to configure Banner by Ellucian to the
Exadata Database Machine so that functional tasks
are processed very fast and in a shorter window of
time, even during peak usage loads like registration,
orientation, and payroll processing. During testing,

Database Machine performed exceptionally well,
reaching up to 19 times more registrations per hour
and five times faster processing of higher education’s
toughest load: peak concurrent student registration.
HCT was quick to embrace the solution, continuing
its path of adopting new technologies that will benefit
its faculty, management, staff, and students. “A
mainstay of HCT’s success is the use and integration
of the latest technology available. We want to ensure
that our students are capable of using cutting-edge
technology, so that they have the skills and knowledge
to contribute to the UAE economy and to their
communities when they graduate,” said Dr. Kamali.
For example, HCT Foundation Programme students
have been using tablet technologies, such as the
Apple iPad, as part of their studies in order to become
familiar with mobile learning and technologies. In
addition, the Colleges provide many self-service and
online applications. HCT was the first post-secondary
institution in the region to implement Banner Flexible
Registration and the Ellucian Payment Center by
TouchNet®. The college’s administrative needs are
being met by the Student, Finance, Human Resource,
and Payroll modules of Banner by Ellucian.
However, the growing list of applications and mobile
access placed pressure on HCT’s server capacity.
In addition, CPUs were reaching capacity whenever
large processes - like grade roll, GPA calculation and
payroll - were running. Also, the processes were time
consuming. Before running Banner on the Oracle
Exadata Database Machine, completing end-of-
semester processes consumed 100 percent of CPU
and took two to three days. Now the processes are
completed within a few hours, and total resource
utilization has not gone above 15 percent.
The additional capacity also is making it possible for
HCT to add new applications, like Banner Flexible
Registration, to better support its students. The
increased capacity also enables users to access data
dynamically from the Banner system. Access to the
up-to-date data helps the colleges take action more
quickly to support students. By using this new product
staff can see within one day the students who have
failed and need to retake courses, and can advise them
sooner on how to move forward.
Database consolidation delivers cost
savings and reduces IT support
The Oracle Exadata Database Machine is also
delivering cost and time savings for the IT department.
“We consolidated our six databases into one server,
offsetting the cost of our Exadata machine and we
expect cost savings in the long run,” said Khalid Tariq,
Head of Enterprise Systems Development. “It also
supports the college’s green initiative.”
Also, the amount of administrative support required to
maintain the servers has been reduced, and DBA tasks
have been simplified as all critical databases – including
the learning management system and data warehouse
- are hosted on the same machine. In addition, it takes
less time for IT staff to execute batch processes and
reports.
“We continue to see increases in the number of HCT
online and data systems users who require that their
work is completed as quickly as possible, as well as
increases in the demand for more applications and
resources,” Khalid Tariq said. “By running Banner on
the Oracle Exadata Database Machine, we can meet
their demands for performance now, and we have the
capacity to grow to meet their demands in the future.”

With this agreement, we have the resources to better support them to reach their goals,” said Dr. Tayeb Kamali, Vice Chancellor of the HCT. The Higher Colleges of Technology in Abu Dhabi is the largest higher education system in the United Arab Emirates, supporting more than 18,000 students and 2,000 staff members on 17 campuses. It is the first institution in the Middle East to implement Oracle Exadata for Banner. Ellucian worked closely with Oracle to configure Banner by Ellucian to the Exadata Database Machine so that functional tasks are processed very fast and in a shorter window of time, even during peak usage loads like registration, orientation, and payroll processing. During testing, Banner by Ellucian running on the Oracle Exadata

ECS-383-MEA Database Machine performed exceptionally well, reaching up to 19 times more registrations per hour and five times faster processing of higher education’s toughest load: peak concurrent student registration. HCT was quick to embrace the solution, continuing its path of adopting new technologies that will benefit its faculty, management, staff, and students. “A mainstay of HCT’s success is the use and integration of the latest technology available. We want to ensure that our students are capable of using cutting-edge technology, so that they have the skills and knowledge to contribute to the UAE economy and to their communities when they graduate,” said Dr. Kamali. For example, HCT Foundation Programme students have been using tablet technologies, such as the Apple iPad, as part of their studies in order to become familiar with mobile learning and technologies. In addition, the Colleges provide many self-service and online applications. HCT was the first post-secondary institution in the region to implement Banner Flexible Registration and the Ellucian Payment Center by TouchNet®. The college’s administrative needs are being met by the Student, Finance, Human Resource, and Payroll modules of Banner by Ellucian. However, the growing list of applications and mobile access placed pressure on HCT’s server capacity. In addition, CPUs were reaching capacity whenever large processes - like grade roll, GPA calculation and payroll - were running. Also, the processes were time consuming. Before running Banner on the Oracle Exadata Database Machine, completing end-of- semester processes consumed 100 percent of CPU and took two to three days. Now the processes are completed within a few hours, and total resource utilization has not gone above 15 percent. The additional capacity also is making it possible for HCT to add new applications, like Banner Flexible Registration, to better support its students. The increased capacity also enables users to access data dynamically from the Banner system. Access to the up-to-date data helps the colleges take action more quickly to support students. By using this new product staff can see within one day the students who have failed and need to retake courses, and can advise them sooner on how to move forward. Database consolidation delivers cost savings and reduces IT support The Oracle Exadata Database Machine is also delivering cost and time savings for the IT department. “We consolidated our six databases into one server, offsetting the cost of our Exadata machine and we expect cost savings in the long run,” said Khalid Tariq, Head of Enterprise Systems Development. “It also supports the college’s green initiative.” Also, the amount of administrative support required to maintain the servers has been reduced, and DBA tasks have been simplified as all critical databases – including the learning management system and data warehouse - are hosted on the same machine. In addition, it takes less time for IT staff to execute batch processes and reports. “We continue to see increases in the number of HCT online and data systems users who require that their work is completed as quickly as possible, as well as increases in the demand for more applications and resources,” Khalid Tariq said. “By running Banner on the Oracle Exadata Database Machine, we can meet their demands for performance now, and we have the capacity to grow to meet their demands in the future.”
