挑战
主要挑战之一是公司需要一个集中的数据仓库来满足统一的报告和分析要求。数据未正确合并,其结构不适合用户要求。此外,报告过程非常缓慢。单个系统已经扩展到信息不再以集中方式存储和呈现的程度,这可以促进整个公司的有效组织决策。数据仓库应该更好地支持内部和外部用户访问数据并提高分析和报告活动的性能也变得越来越明显。为了将其产品从简单的数据馈送发展为自助式 BI,该公司需要一个新的强大平台,使用户能够摆脱 Excel 思维模式,并可以将他们带入探索模式,以便更好、更快地做出决策。目标是集成业务应用程序线(本地和 SAAS)。
解决方案
WinWire 帮助该公司构想了一个基于 Power BI 的报告平台,该平台不仅可以使用 SharePoint Online 实现协作和分析环境,还可以提供一个自助式 BI 平台。使用 SQL 2014 实施了高度优化和可扩展的体系结构。在 Windows Azure 虚拟机中部署 SQL Server 用于数据仓库为客户提供了以最低成本实现价值的最快时间。 WinWire 有助于简化数据管理,同时构建安全数据模型以供可视化层使用。高度交互的可视化层是使用 Power BI 构建的,它允许用户发现隐藏的见解并针对业务数据线执行快速分析。该解决方案为 Microsoft Azure (VM) 提供 SQL Server,以帮助降低高可用性和灾难恢复 (HADR) 数据库解决方案的成本。本地 AD 与 O365 的同步简化了本地和云身份基础架构的管理。该公司现在从强大的数据仓库解决方案中显着受益,该解决方案为报告提供聚合数据。

IoT System for Tunnel Construction
The Zenitaka Corporation ('Zenitaka') has two major business areas: its architectural business focuses on structures such as government buildings, office buildings, and commercial facilities, while its civil engineering business is targeted at structures such as tunnels, bridges and dams. Within these areas, there presented two issues that have always persisted in regard to the construction of mountain tunnels. These issues are 'improving safety" and "reducing energy consumption". Mountain tunnels construction requires a massive amount of electricity. This is because there are many kinds of electrical equipment being used day and night, including construction machinery, construction lighting, and ventilating fan. Despite this, the amount of power consumption is generally not tightly managed. In many cases, the exact amount of power consumption is only ascertained when the bill from the power company becomes available. Sometimes, corporations install demand-monitoring equipment to help curb the maximum power demanded. However, even in these cases, the devices only allow the total volume of power consumption to be ascertained, or they may issue warnings to prevent the contracted volume of power from being exceeded. In order to tackle the issue of reducing power consumption, it was first necessary to obtain an accurate breakdown of how much power was being used in each particular area. In other words, we needed to be able to visualize the amount of power being consumed. Safety, was also not being managed very rigorously. Even now, tunnel construction sites often use a 'name label' system for managing entry into the work site. Specifically, red labels with white reverse sides that bear the workers' names on both sides are displayed at the tunnel work site entrance. The workers themselves then flip the name label to the appropriate side when entering or exiting from the work site to indicate whether or not they are working inside the tunnel at any given time. If a worker forgets to flip his or her name label when entering or exiting from the tunnel, management cannot be performed effectively. In order to tackle the challenges mentioned above, Zenitaka decided to build a system that could improve the safety of tunnel construction as well as reduce the amount of power consumed. In other words, this new system would facilitate a clear picture of which workers were working in each location at the mountain tunnel construction site, as well as which processes were being carried out at those respective locations at any given time. The system would maintain the safety of all workers while also carefully controlling the electrical equipment to reduce unnecessary power consumption. Having decided on the concept, our next concern was whether there existed any kind of robust hardware that would not break down at the construction work site, that could move freely in response to changes in the working environment, and that could accurately detect workers and vehicles using radio frequency identification (RFID). Given that this system would involve many components that were new to Zenitaka, we decided to enlist the cooperation of E.I.Sol Co., Ltd. ('E.I.Sol') as our joint development partner, as they had provided us with a highly practical proposal.

Condition Based Monitoring for Industrial Systems
A large construction aggregate plant operates 10 high horsepower Secondary Crusher Drive Motors and associated conveyor belts, producing 600 tons of product per hour. All heavy equipment requires maintenance, but the aggregate producer’s costs were greatly magnified any time that the necessary maintenance was unplanned and unscheduled. The product must be supplied to the customers on a tight time schedule to fulfill contracts, avoid penalties, and prevent the loss of future business. Furthermore, a sudden failure in one of the drive motors would cause rock to pile up in unwanted locations, extending the downtime and increasing the costs.Clearly, preventative maintenance was preferable to unexpected failures. So, twice each year, the company brought in an outside vendor to attach sensors to the motors, do vibration studies, measure bearing temperatures and attempt to assess the health of the motors. But that wasn’t enough. Unexpected breakdowns continued to occur. The aggregate producer decided to upgrade to a Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) sensor system that could continually monitor the motors in real time, apply data analytics to detect changes in motor behavior before they developed into major problems, and alert maintenance staff via email or text, anywhere they happened to be.A wired sensor network would have been cost prohibitive. An aggregate plant has numerous heavy vehicles moving around, so any cabling would have to be protected. But the plant covers 400 acres, and the cable would have to be trenched to numerous locations. Cable wasn’t going to work. The aggregate producer needed a wireless solution.
