挑战
全球饮料公司百威英博 (AB InBev) 在管理其遍布 50 多个国家的技术平台方面面临着挑战。该公司将其业务划分为 6 个不同的区域,每个区域管理自己的 IT 流程,并拥有 16 个企业数据中心。这导致了信息和运营的孤立、研究工作的重复以及在全公司范围内拥抱创新的困难。该公司希望集中其 IT 职能,不再管理核心基础设施,而是专注于创新服务。此外,百威英博还希望开发一个全球分析平台,以获得对其制造过程每个步骤中收集的大量数据的宝贵见解。
关于客户
百威英博总部位于比利时鲁汶,是一家全球饮料公司,业务遍及六大洲 50 多个国家。该公司以其受欢迎的啤酒品牌而闻名,如百威、科罗娜、时代啤酒、贝克啤酒和福斯特啤酒。百威英博不仅是一家饮料公司,也是一家科技公司,利用技术推动商业和运营增长并提高可持续性。该公司在硅谷设有啤酒车库,并在印度班加罗尔设有全球分析中心,致力于推动创新极限。百威英博还参与了许多更美好世界的倡议,重点关注可持续发展和回馈社区。
解决方案
百威英博选择 Microsoft Azure 作为支持其 IT 转型的平台。该公司首先将 IT 运营迁移到云端,打破数据孤岛,并构建全球分析平台。它使用应用程序现代化和容器化策略以及 Docker 和 Kubernetes 等技术将应用程序迁移到 Azure。该公司还使用 Azure Synapse Analytics 将其旧数据仓库转移到 Azure 平台即服务 (PaaS) 环境。百威英博使用 Synapse Analytics 开发了一个全球分析平台,汇集了来自多个部门的数据。该公司还广泛使用 Hadoop 进行大数据分析流程、Azure HDInsight 服务、Azure Data Lake 和 Azure Blob 存储。百威英博还开始使用 Azure 物联网 (IoT) 服务(包括 Azure IoT 中心和 Azure 流分析)在其仓库中试点测试 RFID 程序。
