NEWS BT has chosen IBM and storage company, EMC, to set up a £5m 13TB data warehouse to store and manage customer information. It will use Numa-Q servers and EMC Symmetrix Enterprise Storage systems. Before finalising the contract, BT asked the companies to demonstrate an 82TB database running on an Oracle 8i database to prove scalability. The telco expects to increase the size of the system over time. The planned project will use software from marketing software developer, Prime Response, manage the information for the marketing operations.
