DaVita deployed BI content across Dev, Test/QA, and Production with a process that felt safe but offered no real rollback and no versioning of content-store objects, putting months of development at risk every day. Then the unthinkable happened: after a routine reboot, Cognos wouldn't restart. A rare bug had left the content store with circular references (CMSYS5230), and the team was stuck.
DaVita had implemented Motio just four months earlier. Its version-control capabilities were used to pinpoint the cause of the failure and restore the corrupted content-store database. Motio's support team walked DaVita through recovering the affected reports and packages, and going forward, Motio automated environment-to-environment deployment, including security configuration and data sources.
“When our Dev content store crashed, we had just implemented MotioCI four months prior. If we had not had MotioCI, we would have been in a really, really bad situation. Right there, it paid for itself.”
“Motio has made it so simple to deploy between environments.”
