关于客户
Desktop Metal was created to change the way the world brings products to market. In 2013, CEO Ric Fulop began collaborating with world-leading experts in materials science, engineering, and 3D printing. Their work together over the course of two years drew multiple independent inventions together to form the basis for Desktop Metal’s technology. The company recognized that current metal 3D printing was too expensive and industrial for prototyping, and it was not fast enough or cost-effective enough for mass production. To address these challenges, Desktop Metal offers two systems: the Studio System for in-house complex metal part printing and the Production System for mass production.
挑战
Desktop Metal recognized that current metal 3D printing was too expensive and industrial for prototyping, and it was not fast enough or cost-effective enough for mass production. Because of the many innovative technologies in Desktop Metal’s products, there can be frequent engineering and supply chain changes. Coordinating team members, suppliers, and contract manufacturers is essential for the company to hit its design goals, target costs, and production timeframes. The rapid growth of the company also makes it essential for newly hired employees to quickly come up to speed on the latest product discussions.
解决方案
With their extensive development experience at previous companies, the Desktop Metal team knew they needed a PLM system to manage the complexity and rapid pace of innovation with their products. They chose Propel because it could easily integrate with other systems and flexibly scale with the business as it grows. The Salesforce cloud platform that Propel uses also ensures that Desktop Metal always has continuous and controlled access to their critical product data. The fast pace of innovation at Desktop Metal requires a PLM system that is easy to configure, maintain, and upgrade. Desktop Metal can create a field, custom object, or workflow in just a few clicks, with no programming required. They quickly configured their items, product hierarchies, categories, and lifecycles in Propel, and continue to add users as the company grows.

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.
