挑战
iON Solutions, a managed service provider, was facing challenges with its aging IT infrastructure. The company's infrastructure included eight legacy servers and a Dell EqualLogic SAN, along with two backup SANs running Veeam Backup and Replication. The main driver for the project was infrastructure modernization, but the company also needed to improve its backup and disaster recovery capabilities. The company's customers rely on it to provide critical IT services, so availability, flexibility, and data protection are paramount in its IT infrastructure. The company pledges to minimize risk, drive cost savings, improve security, and to maximize efficiency for greener computing in commercial organizations and in government. Therefore, when it came time for a server refresh, President Derek Fowler decided to cast a wider net and consider new technologies for the company's aging infrastructure.
解决方案
iON Solutions decided to purchase OmniCube, SimpliVity's federated and hyper-converged infrastructure platform based on its 'datacenter-in-a-box' approach along with its radically simplified and impactful backup and disaster recovery attributes. With OmniCube, ION is taking advantage of critical functionality that is not available with any other 'hyperconverged' infrastructure offering. iON and its clients are now benefiting from OmniCube's built-in cross-site data protection and disaster recovery capabilities that are VM-centric, policy-based, and automated. Fowler said that since implementing OmniCube, iON Solutions has been able to eliminate multiple legacy servers, along with all of the SAN infrastructure for backup data. With OmniCube, managed completely from within the familiar VMware vCenter GUI, administration is far more streamlined and simple because the company's administrator no longer has to use multiple interfaces to manage all the disparate products in his old infrastructure.

Case Study
Remote Monitoring & Predictive Maintenance App for a Solar Energy System
The maintenance & tracking of various modules was an overhead for the customer due to the huge labor costs involved. Being an advanced solar solutions provider, they wanted to ensure early detection of issues and provide the best-in-class customer experience. Hence they wanted to automate the whole process.
Case Study
Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
Case Study
Aircraft Predictive Maintenance and Workflow Optimization
First, aircraft manufacturer have trouble monitoring the health of aircraft systems with health prognostics and deliver predictive maintenance insights. Second, aircraft manufacturer wants a solution that can provide an in-context advisory and align job assignments to match technician experience and expertise.
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).
