Solution
Munich Re HealthTech migrated its SMAART insurance analytics platform to Oracle Autonomous AI Database with globally distributed sharding to meet multi-country data residency requirements. The cloud platform reduced data-extraction dashboard builds from 15 days to 20 minutes using Oracle APEX; built a generative-AI chatbot using OCI Generative AI and AI Vector Search that answers 90%+ of user questions in seconds; and enabled real-time semantic search across insurance underwriting, claims, pricing, and actuarial documentation.
Data flow
Insurance underwriting, claims, pricing, and risk data → Autonomous AI Database → distributed via sharding to regional centers; APEX dashboards extract and visualize data; AI chatbot receives natural-language queries → Vector Search → Generative AI → answers grounded in authoritative data.
