挑战
Kronopol 是瑞士 Krono Holding AG 的子公司，也是木制品行业的全球领导者，它面临着支持公司 SAP 应用程序的数据库不断增长的挑战。IT 团队花费越来越多的时间来维护和管理这些数据库。不断增长的数据量还影响了每日备份等业务关键功能。Kronopol 需要一种解决方案，既能支持业务增长带来的数据爆炸，又能保持 IT 支出精简。该公司正在寻找一种解决方案，不仅可以满足其即时数据管理需求并降低存储成本，还可以提供战略解决方案来帮助管理长期数据增长。
关于客户
Kronopol Sp. z oo 成立于 1994 年，总部位于波兰扎里，是瑞士 Krono Holding AG 的子公司，该公司是木制品行业的全球领导者。凭借最现代化的生产线以及 Krono 集团一百多年的经验，该公司提供的产品具有最高的质量和美学参数。目前，Kronopol 每年生产超过 150 万立方米的木质板材。
解决方案
Kronopol 与 IBM 签署了一份为期五年的外包合同，其中包括将公司的关键 SAP 应用程序迁移到 IBM® DB2®。该项目历时 10 个月，没有中断业务流程。IBM DB2 在与 IBM System Storage DS® 链接的 IBM Power Systems™ 服务器上实施，由 IBM System Storage® SAN Volume Controller 软件管理。该解决方案使用 IBM PowerHA® 和 Enqueue Replication Server 技术配置高可用性。备份和恢复由 IBM Tivoli® Storage Manager 软件处理。总的来说，Kronopol 已将近 20 个 SAP 系统迁移到 DB2，包括五个生产实例和两个旧系统。所有操作均使用标准 SAP 迁移工具（如异构系统副本）完成。支持从 MaxDB 升级到 DB2 的大多数计划数据库中断持续时间远少于 48 小时，将业务中断降至最低。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
