The scenario
The Shanghai Council for the Promotion of International Trade, founded in November 1956, serves as the oldest local branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT). With a population exceeding 26 million people, the council plays a pivotal role in facilitating business activities within the city.
Currently, the council relies on a centralized Oracle database system to manage its operations efficiently.
However, it's noteworthy that approximately 30% of the council's records remain in electronic format and have not been migrated to the Oracle DBMS.
As of the date of this report, approximately 70% of the council's records have been successfully migrated to the Oracle DBMS. Efforts are ongoing to complete the migration process and ensure that all pertinent data is integrated into the centralized database system.
The council has five major customers, Local Businesses, Foreign Companies, Citizens, Tourists and Partner Organisations. Tourists can book value pack trips all around Shanghai, if needed.
Stringent measures have been implemented to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data stored within the Oracle database system. Access controls are in place to restrict unauthorized access, and regular security audits are conducted to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
Regular backups of the Oracle database are performed to mitigate the risk of data loss in the event of system failures, natural disasters, or other unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, comprehensive disaster recovery plans have been developed to ensure the swift restoration of services in the event of a catastrophic event.
