关于客户

挑战
Magna, a leading global automotive supplier, had built a successful application called MAGIC that manages their complete production line as they manufacture and supply parts to car companies such as BMW, Bentley, and Land Rover. The application runs on Actian Ingres and Actian OpenROAD. However, Magna had limited internal resources to manage and monitor MAGIC, and they were looking to outsource this to a third party. The previous management of the application was done by Computacenter.
解决方案
Magna decided to outsource the monitoring and support of their MAGIC application to Actian. Actian Services now proactively monitors the company’s Ingres and OpenROAD instances (production and disaster recovery) as well as the MAGIC application using Actian’s Enterprise Management Service (EMS) which is based on using Actian’s Enterprise Management Appliance (EMA). Actian’s EMA was installed on the Magna Intranet using a suitably pre-existing x86 server that supports Linux onsite at Magna’s business premises in Redditch, UK, backed up with remote monitoring and support. The EMA provides a single interface for monitoring Ingres and OpenROAD, provides email/SMS alerts and have the built-in capability to work with parameters such as working hours, SLAs and escalation procedures. Actian’s EMA also incorporates an Ingres database to collect performance data to provide Magna with long-term “trend analysis” data.

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).
