关于客户
Nike was founded by University of Oregon track athlete Phil Knight and his coach Bill Bowerman in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports to develop athletic shoes. The company changed its name to Nike (Greek for victory) in 1978 and has grown to be leading global developer and retail sales company of athletic footwear, apparel, and sports equipment. Today, Nike is one of the most recognized brands around the world with operations in more than 160 countries and employees on six continents. The company’s self-proclaimed mission is to bring inspiration and innovation to every athlete in the world. Over the last few years, the company has added a series of athletic engagement activities that anyone can join.
挑战
Nike's online business is a significant and growing part of its revenue portfolio. In 2011, Nike.com and its associated eCommerce applications brought in about $450 Million in revenue in the United States and about $200 Million plus in Europe. However, prior to the company’s bringing in New Relic in 2011, incident notification, performance triage and management were significant challenges for the nike.com eCommerce team. There was very little insight into production application server health. And although the team was using tools, they didn’t provide the detailed insight the team needed to ensure performance of Nike’s rapidly growing eCommerce platform. As Kevin Bartholomew, Nike Web Support Production Manager says, “Our main challenge was insufficient insight into our eCommerce applications — no single pane of glass we could look at to see what was going on under the covers. One tool told us the network was down. Another told us the site was slow. We didn’t have anything to see where the problems were, and definitely not what was causing potential issues.”
解决方案
The team did an exhaustive analysis of performance monitoring tools. They evaluated traditional on-premise solutions but the price tag for software, hardware and staffing was prohibitive. The complexity and set-up time of traditional tools eliminated some tools from consideration. The team then turned to New Relic. “We chose New Relic based on the features available, its ease of installation and its quick results,” comments Kevin. “Overall cost was important to us so the fact that New Relic was a SaaS offering was helpful. We really liked its simple intuitive interface and shallow learning curve, and best of all, we really appreciated its almost instant value.” With its easy-to-use interface, the Nike web support team found New Relic quick to pick up and learn. Today, when performance issues are discovered, the team jumps on them quickly, enabling them to be much more proactive rather than reactive. The result is that the team knows there is an issue before the customer knows — and that’s exactly what they want!

Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.

Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
