关于客户
Pearson VUE 总部位于明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯，每年为执照、认证、学术录取、监管和政府考试市场的客户提供数百万次高风险考试。作为全球最大的考试组织，Pearson VUE 致力于保持敏捷性和竞争力。该公司不断尝试创新和改进其产品和服务，以保持竞争优势。Pearson VUE 的商业智能 (BI) 开发团队由高级集团经理 Guy Speier 领导，在此过程中发挥着至关重要的作用。
挑战
Pearson VUE 是全球最大的考试机构，它一直苦于耗时的手动发布和部署流程。该流程涉及数十个步骤，由于无法快速将代码投入生产，导致开发和运营团队感到沮丧。当出现生产问题时，很难确定问题出在代码还是部署上。鉴于 Pearson VUE 的业务性质，减少生产问题至关重要。例如，生产中的任何问题都可能影响客户授予候选人行医执照的速度。
解决方案
为了应对这一挑战，Guy Speier 和 Pearson VUE 高级开发人员 Mark Muellner 使用 IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy 软件来自动化其团队的软件部署流程。该团队之前曾三次尝试自动化部署，投入了数百小时的工作，但效果不佳。然而，使用 IBM UrbanCode Deploy 软件，仅用 35 小时就取得了重大进展。在三周内，三个主要软件组件中的两个实现了 95% 的自动化。新的解决方案允许 Muellner 创建一个时间表，自动从存储库中提取代码更改，构建它们，然后将它们推送到集成和回归测试环境。从开始到结束的整个过程都是自动化的，将数十个手动步骤减少到开发人员将代码签入存储库的单个步骤。

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
