关于客户
Yellow Pages is a Canadian digital media and marketing solutions company that champions local neighborhood economies. The company connects consumers looking for businesses, such as plumbers or florists, with these businesses seeking potential customers. Yellow Pages is well-known for its print directories, but it has been transforming and adapting its business to the digital world to meet the changing needs of consumers. The company's role is to ensure that the information provided is complete, accurate, up-to-date, and rich, differentiating itself through content accuracy. The company's vision includes efficient, systematic, and controlled curation of directory content, supported by the right governance, people, processes, and tools. The Content Accuracy & Relevance (CAR) initiative is a key part of this vision, aiming to deliver the richest, most accurate, up-to-date, and relevant content to consumers and provide advertisers with exceptional ROI for lead generation and customer acquisition.
挑战
Yellow Pages, a well-known Canadian digital media and marketing solutions company, faced the challenge of transforming its business from traditional print directories to the digital world. With consumers increasingly looking for information online, on smartphones, and on social platforms, the company needed to adapt to these new search methods. The primary challenge was to ensure that the information provided was complete, accurate, up-to-date, and rich. The company had multiple sources of merchant information, which, if published online without proper management, would lead to incomplete or duplicate listings. This would result in a loss of users, as consumers do not accept inaccurate information. The company's vision was to have efficient, systematic, and controlled curation of directory content by implementing the right governance, people, processes, and tools. The Content Accuracy & Relevance (CAR) initiative aimed to acquire, maintain, and deliver the richest, most accurate, up-to-date, and relevant content to consumers, while providing advertisers with exceptional ROI for lead generation and customer acquisition.
解决方案
Yellow Pages Group (YPG) selected TIBCO as its single vendor for the transformation project due to TIBCO's comprehensive toolset, including integration, speed of implementation, data-model flexibility, and matching capabilities. TIBCO technology enabled YPG to identify businesses that consumers were searching for and accurately match these businesses with data from third-party services and its own databases. The TIBCO MDM platform handles data governance routines, the matching engine, and the identification and elimination of duplicates, including metadata management. Exception management and business process management are managed with TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks, while the integration of both inbound (source content) and outbound (publishing systems) is implemented using TIBCO Enterprise Message Service. The first phase of the project, which focused on addressing the merchant golden records, was completed in less than six months. TIBCO's flexible data modeling, scalability, and performance were key factors in its selection. The implementation of TIBCO's solutions has made information more accurate, timely, and easier to maintain, laying the foundation for increasing consumer reach and achieving the CAR program's ultimate goal.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
