挑战
FTA’s member companies needed reliable data on producers to avoid human rights abuses and unsanitary conditions. The manual system for auditing and reporting data was inefficient, making it difficult to provide timely and accurate reports. Members had no way to independently access data, requiring internal resources to manually extract information from various sources. This lack of visibility and efficiency was a significant challenge for FTA.
关于客户
FTA is a European non-profit organization with 2,000 member companies and over 40,000 producers globally. The organization provides its members with critical information on supply chain reliability, business practices, socio-environmental sustainability, and performance. FTA's mission includes ensuring that its members do not engage with producers involved in human rights abuses, child labor, or unsanitary factory conditions. The organization collects and audits vast amounts of data to help its members make informed decisions. FTA's members include high producers of services from countries like India and China, and they rely on FTA for accurate and timely data to maintain ethical and sustainable business practices.
解决方案
Anis Radianis, the BI Manager at FTA, implemented Sisense to provide fast and accurate reports with less manual work. Sisense's free POC impressed Anis with its ease of use, attractive interface, and robust security features. The solution allowed FTA to embed analytics, giving members the visibility they needed. Anis built an environment where users could log into the same system but only see their own data by partitioning the data within the same ElastiCube. This setup was a significant time saver and met the security requirements of FTA's members. The new system was introduced to 200 members at a seminar, where it received positive feedback for its ability to provide detailed, on-demand information about supply chains and producer demographics.

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.
