挑战
CodeGuard, a service that provides backup and protection for websites, was looking for ways to expand its user base and improve its product. The company wanted to reach out to website owners who were interested in securing their sites. However, reaching out to this audience and getting their feedback for product improvement was a challenge.
关于客户
CodeGuard is a company that offers a unique service for small and medium businesses, acting as a 'time machine' for websites. The service is cloud-hosted and begins by performing an initial backup of website content. It then monitors the site for any changes. If changes are detected, CodeGuard takes a new backup and alerts the owner. The owner can then rollback any undesired changes, whether they are due to attacks or mistakes. CodeGuard was introduced to the public at TechCrunch Disrupt: NYC in May 2011.
解决方案
CodeGuard became a partner with Cloudflare, a web infrastructure and website security company, and introduced its app within a month. This partnership allowed CodeGuard to access and serve a user base similar to its own - website owners who wanted to protect and secure their sites. As a Cloudflare app partner, CodeGuard experienced immediate and significant user growth without any marketing efforts. Cloudflare's customers also played a crucial role in helping CodeGuard improve its product by providing feedback, testing beta features, and offering community support.

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.

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.
