Zwei Systeme – Eine Datenbank: der Erfolgsfaktor für effiziente Datenverwaltung lbase

TMS and WMS: Two systems - one database

Our lbase success factor for efficient data management

Optimized data management is crucial for the smooth operation of systems. Databases play a central role here, as they store information in a structured manner. This ensures consistent and rapid availability of information. In combination with a database management system, data can be easily inserted, changed, retrieved and deleted. The use of multiple systems, each with their own separate databases, can lead to challenges that can complicate operations and cause additional work.

Challenges with separate systems

  • Data inconsistencies: No automatic synchronization when information changes.
  • Redundant data storage: Duplicate storage of the same information increases memory consumption and maintenance costs.
  • Complex interfaces: Complex interfaces are necessary to ensure data exchange between the systems.
  • Increased susceptibility to errors: Increased risk of errors and loss of information at every interface.
  • Lack of real-time information: Delays in synchronization lead to systems not being up to date.
  • Increasing maintenance and operating costs: Maintenance, backups and security measures required for each database.
  • Difficult evaluations and reports: Data consolidation required for comprehensive evaluations.

Double the power, one database: how to optimize your logistics with lbase

For efficient data management, we use a shared database for our lbase transportation management system (TMS) and warehouse management system (WMS). This allows us to make optimum use of the advantages of centralized data storage and make the operation of our two systems even more effective.

Why a standardized database makes all the difference

  • Data consistency & real-time integration: Changes in one system are automatically visible in the other system.
  • Performance & efficiency: Direct queries possible without time-consuming data synchronization.
  • Same master data for both lbase systems: Central storage to ensure consistent data.
  • Less administration effort: Maintenance, backup and optimization are reduced to a single database.
  • Lower license/operating costs: Costs only for one central database instead of several databases.
  • Better analyses & reports: A standardized database facilitates comprehensive evaluations.

We place great importance on efficiency and optimizing your workflows - with our TMS and WMS solutions, we ensure that your data is managed seamlessly, consistently and future-proof so that you can focus on what's important.
