Hannover Re’s analytical app, hr | ReFlex, allows the company to quickly and easily assess insurance applications with optimal levels of security, scalability, and availability. The cloud-based app runs on MarkLogic, which integrates data and provides Hannover Re with a 360-degree view of customer information — accurate, comprehensive, and up-to-date.
After examining options such as relational and open source databases, the MarkLogic database was the best option to meet our targets. It provides the infrastructure we needed to make the next generation of hr | ReFlex possible.”
