关于客户
AAA of Northern CA, NV, and UT, is the second-largest regional member club of the national organization AAA and serves more than 4 million Members in over 80+ branch offices in Northern California, Nevada and Utah. The AAA Emergency Road Service responds to almost 30 million distress calls from members nationally. They also sell insurance, offer vacation packages and provide discounts on hotels, cruises, flights etc. AAA also publishes and distributes millions of maps, tour books and other auto and travel publications each year.
挑战
AAA of Northern CA, NV, and UT recently reorganized its operations to create a for-profit Insurance division and a not-for-profit Auto division. While the Auto Club put in place its data center, integration platforms and applications, it shared IT resources with the Insurance division so as to keep its operational applications, like reporting tools, call centers working as usual. The company was looking for a way to create an abstraction layer that deployed quickly and continued to feed the operational applications while migration continued under the hood. From a strategic perspective, as they were building their IT infrastructure from the ground up, AAA wanted to infuse flexibility and agility into the architecture that will allow them to introduce future changes at the source, target or middleware layer without disrupting existing workflows.
解决方案
After a 90 day POC, AAA selected Denodo's Data Virtualization platform because it met its short term and long term requirements. While it enabled an easy IT systems migration in the short term, it also provided the flexibility and agility to the AAA architecture which is important in the long term. The unified virtual data layer enabled by Data Virtualization enabled IT systems transition at AAA because it abstracted data consuming applications from changes occurring in the underlying sources during the migration process. Data Virtualization could connect to the disparate data sources, like databases, flat files, spreadsheets which were spread across multiple data centers and publish required data in various formats to analytical applications like Microstrategy as well as transactional applications or SOA entities.

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
Case Study
Monitoring of Pressure Pumps in Automotive Industry
A large German/American producer of auto parts uses high-pressure pumps to deburr machined parts as a part of its production and quality check process. They decided to monitor these pumps to make sure they work properly and that they can see any indications leading to a potential failure before it affects their process.
