关于客户
巴西信用合作社系统 (Sicoob) 是巴西最大的信用合作社系统，为 250 多万人提供银行和信贷服务。Sicoob 的客户也是其所有者，因此财务回报惠及的是他们的社区，而不是股东。Sicoob 借助巴西日益繁荣的经济发展，成功实施了一项成功的增长战略。该组织采用由超稳定骨干网支持的移动和社交技术，实现了消费者日益需要的随时随地服务。
挑战
Sicoob 是巴西最大的信用合作社系统，其业务正在快速增长，产品和服务的数量和范围也在不断扩大。这种增长加上对不间断服务的需求，给 Sicoob 现有的分布式基础设施带来了巨大压力，该基础设施运行着所有核心银行服务。此外，每当有新的信用合作社加入 Sicoob 时，该组织都必须将新系统和流程集成到其运营中，并进行扩展以容纳更多的用户、交易和数据。结果，Sicoob 最终需要管理数百个数据库，增加了复杂性、效率低下和成本。为了避免阻碍增长，该组织需要找到一种更智能的方法。
解决方案
为了支持业务的持续快速增长和新功能的开发，Sicoob 需要一种全新的 IT 模式。该组织做出了一项战略决策，将其基于 Intel 处理器的分布式服务器迁移到 IBM z Systems 平台上的 Linux。如今，Sicoob 在 IBM z/VM® 上运行了 300 多个基于 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 的虚拟服务器，这些服务器分布在 IBM zEnterprise EC12 服务器和第二个 IBM z Systems 服务器上。位于第二个站点的第三个 z Systems 服务器提供了灾难恢复选项并托管开发环境。Sicoob 还着手将其成员数据库迁移和整合到 IBM DB2 for Linux、UNIX 和 Windows (DB2 LUW)，选择在其 z Systems 平台上的虚拟环境中托管该解决方案。

Real-time In-vehicle Monitoring
The telematic solution provides this vital premium-adjusting information. The solution also helps detect and deter vehicle or trailer theft – as soon as a theft occurs, monitoring personnel can alert the appropriate authorities, providing an exact location.“With more and more insurance companies and major fleet operators interested in monitoring driver behaviour on the grounds of road safety, efficient logistics and costs, the market for this type of device and associated e-business services is growing rapidly within Italy and the rest of Europe,” says Franco.“The insurance companies are especially interested in the pay-per-use and pay-as-you-drive applications while other organisations employ the technology for road user charging.”“One million vehicles in Italy currently carry such devices and forecasts indicate that the European market will increase tenfold by 2014.However, for our technology to work effectively, we needed a highly reliable wireless data network to carry the information between the vehicles and monitoring stations.”

Safety First with Folksam
The competitiveness of the car insurance market is driving UBI growth as a means for insurance companies to differentiate their customer propositions as well as improving operational efficiency. An insurance model - usage-based insurance ("UBI") - offers possibilities for insurers to do more efficient market segmentation and accurate risk assessment and pricing. Insurers require an IoT solution for the purpose of data collection and performance analysis
Case Study
Smooth Transition to Energy Savings
The building was equipped with four end-of-life Trane water cooled chillers, located in the basement. Johnson Controls installed four York water cooled centrifugal chillers with unit mounted variable speed drives and a total installed cooling capacity of 6,8 MW. Each chiller has a capacity of 1,6 MW (variable to 1.9MW depending upon condenser water temperatures). Johnson Controls needed to design the equipment in such way that it would fit the dimensional constraints of the existing plant area and plant access route but also the specific performance requirements of the client. Morgan Stanley required the chiller plant to match the building load profile, turn down to match the low load requirement when needed and provide an improvement in the Energy Efficiency Ratio across the entire operating range. Other requirements were a reduction in the chiller noise level to improve the working environment in the plant room and a wide operating envelope coupled with intelligent controls to allow possible variation in both flow rate and temperature. The latter was needed to leverage increased capacity from a reduced number of machines during the different installation phases and allow future enhancement to a variable primary flow system.

Automated Pallet Labeling Solution for SPR Packaging
SPR Packaging, an American supplier of packaging solutions, was in search of an automated pallet labeling solution that could meet their immediate and future needs. They aimed to equip their lines with automatic printer applicators, but also required a solution that could interface with their accounting software. The challenge was to find a system that could read a 2D code on pallets at the stretch wrapper, track the pallet, and flag any pallets with unread barcodes for inspection. The pallets could be single or double stacked, and the system needed to be able to differentiate between the two. SPR Packaging sought a system integrator with extensive experience in advanced printing and tracking solutions to provide a complete traceability system.

Transforming insurance pricing while improving driver safety
The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the car insurance industry on a scale not seen since the introduction of the car itself. For decades, premiums have been calculated using proxy-based risk assessment models and historical data. Today, a growing number of innovative companies such as Quebec-based Industrielle Alliance are moving to usage-based insurance (UBI) models, driven by the advancement of telematics technologies and smart tracking devices.

MasterCard Improves Customer Experience Through Self-Service Data Prep
Derek Madison, Leader of Business Financial Support at MasterCard, oversees the validation of transactions and cash between two systems, whether they’re MasterCard owned or not. He was charged with identifying new ways to increase efficiency and improve MasterCard processes. At the outset, the 13-person team had to manually reconcile system interfaces using reports that resided on the company’s mainframe. Their first order of business each day was to print 20-30 individual, multi-page reports. Using a ruler to keep their place within each report, they would then hand-key the relevant data, line by line, into Excel for validation. “We’re talking about a task that took 40-80 hours each week,” recalls Madison, “As a growing company with rapidly expanding product offerings, we had to find a better way to prepare this data for analysis.”
