关于客户
客户是一家领先的制药公司，提供广泛的健康和药房福利管理服务，支持政府和商业保险计划。该公司的处方管理计划使客户能够节省处方费用，提供广泛的医疗保健解决方案，包括关键的高端和癌症护理药物。数千万会员依靠这家制药公司的 20,000 多名员工每年提供超过 10 亿张处方，停机是该组织绝对不能接受的！制药公司的网络基础设施团队管理着公司的多设施数据中心环境。主数据中心在管理内部用户所需的网络流量性能方面发挥着至关重要的业务功能，以及 30 多个远程配送中心站点和通过收购建立的几个新业务部门。
挑战
该制药公司正在进行战略转型，优先部署开放计算平台。网络基础设施团队发现开放计算方法很有吸引力，因为它可以提高灵活性，降低资本支出 (CAPEX) 和运营支出 (OPEX)。然而，他们也在仔细审查部署在主数据中心的数据包代理硬件设备的投资。该团队发现数据包代理设备的更新成本很高，一些新功能需要额外的基于硬件的数据包刀片，这会增加额外的 CAPEX 和 OPEX。该团队需要从传统的网络监控解决方案无缝过渡到他们首选的开放计算平台。
解决方案
该制药公司选择实施 nGeniusONE 服务保证平台，该平台采用多个 COTS InfiniStreamNG® (ISNG) 平台和 COTS nGenius 5000 系列数据包流交换机提供该解决方案的智能数据核心。nGeniusONE 解决方案利用 NETSCOUT 的专利 Adaptive Service Intelligence™ (ASI) 技术，该技术可在收集点将网络流量转换为高度结构化的智能数据。COTS 数据包流交换机架构为网络基础设施团队提供了可扩展和动态运行的战略性数据包可视性，通过使用 COTS ISNG 平台实现普遍的可视性。该制药公司还使用 nGenius Packet Flow Systems Fabric Manager 来配置、部署和排除 COTS nGenius 5000 系列数据包流交换机网络的故障。

Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
