关于客户
The client is a leading provider of a specialized task management system called Getting Things Done (GTD). Their time-management and personal productivity methodology enables a stress-free way to handle tasks while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Created by productivity coach and author David Allen, GTD offers many courses for different target audiences, ranging from CEOs to parents working from home. Videos of GTD best practices and David Allen interviews are very popular with businesses and individuals worldwide.
挑战
The client wanted to make sense of their 20+ years’ worth of accumulated GTD content, which accounted for more than 100,000 documents and media files translating to 9 Terabytes of data. They needed a solution that could transcribe, summarize, conduct sentiment analysis, enable semantic search, and organize their data. This would help them deliver relevant knowledge to both current GTD practitioners and others looking for specific solutions to challenges in their lives. The client explored all major cloud vendors from the Gartner Magic Quadrant, including Amazon, Google, and IBM. However, they found these solutions to be expensive, geared towards large enterprises, and requiring third-party IT vendors for custom solutions. The client felt there was a gap in the market for companies like them with limited users.
解决方案
Repustate provided GTD with a customized semantic search solution capable of handling all the tasks they were looking for. The solution enabled intelligent search of more than 100,000 pieces of content by organizing the data according to topics, themes, and methodology. Its built-in semantic search capability made related content easily accessible. For example, when searching for 'executive,' the client could get all instances of 'president,' 'vice president,' and 'chief executive officer.' Repustate’s solution also allowed the client to search and organize content based on concepts, not just exact keywords. This was particularly useful because, within the GTD methodology, certain terms have specific meanings and relationships to other terms. For example, when the client searches for 'workflow,' they also need to find all instances of any of the five steps of their workflow: Capture, Clarify, Organize, Reflect, and Engage.

UBM plc: Taking the pulse of the business and engaging employees with a far-reaching strategic transformation
UBM, a leading global events business, was undergoing a significant strategic transformation named 'Events First'. As part of this transformation, the company was preparing to complete the largest acquisition in its history - Advanstar, a US-based events and marketing services business valued at more than USD970m. The company faced the risk of human capital flight if it was unable to effectively engage top talent with the new strategic direction. UBM needed to make significant structural, process and systems changes, uniting its previously autonomous regional businesses. The challenge was to ensure all of its employees were engaged and aligned with the new future vision.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Wittmann EDV-Systeme launches IT monitoring services
Small and medium-sized businesses often lack the know-how and resources required for thorough IT system monitoring. Wittmann EDV-Systeme wanted to launch a solution to plug the gap – enabling it to improve its own competitiveness and that of its customers. IT landscapes are becoming ever more complex and outsourcing is gaining popularity, IT systems must nonetheless remain easy-to-use and extremely reliable at all times. Automated, round-the-clock system monitoring therefore represents an immensely valuable proposition for companies: downtime for business-critical applications can be avoided, and IT systems remain available at all times.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
