Founded in 1919 in the Netherlands, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is one of the world's oldest airlines. The company wanted to prevent unacceptable levels of downtime of online ticket sales, passenger self-service check in and other important systems and solve the problem of excessive downtime without making any changes to the company's hardware infrastructure; a range of large Unix SMP servers running IBM AIX. The solution to this was gained by eliminated downtime with a high availability solution based on Oracle Real Application Clusters in combination with HACMP and GPFS from IBM. The company also designed several unix servers function as if they are one Oracle Database server; if one server fails, the others seamlessly take over so that the databases continue to run.
