挑战
Westbury Street Holdings (WSH) 是一家食品服务和酒店行业公司集团的母公司，该公司严重依赖过时的流程，而这些流程过于依赖电子表格和手工工作。该公司为八家独立的公司提供集中的业务管理，并不断寻求改进其服务的方法。经过内部 IT 审查后，WSH 决定从 Microsoft SharePoint 2010 迁移到 SharePoint Online，并将其所有核心业务系统迁移到云端。这一决定具有重大影响，因为 WSH 有大约 60 个人力资源、财务、法律、健康与安全以及采购自动化流程需要转换到新的云环境。这些流程是使用竞争对手的表单和工作流程、InfoPath 表单以及标准 SharePoint 功能的组合经过八年时间构建的。
关于客户
WSH Limited 是一家在食品服务和酒店行业运营的成功公司集团的母公司。该公司为学校和餐馆提供食品，并为八家独立的公司提供集中的业务管理。 WSH 不断寻找改进服务的方法，以造福集团内的所有企业。八年多以来，该公司一直在结合竞争对手的表单和工作流程、InfoPath 表单以及标准 SharePoint 功能来构建自动化工作流程。
解决方案
WSH 选择 Nintex K2 Cloud 来帮助将超过 45 个自动化业务流程迁移到云端。最初，WSH 考虑继续使用 InfoPath 和另一个工作流解决方案，但最终选择用 K2 Cloud 替代它们，K2 Cloud 是一个用于创建定制业务流程的安全在线平台。 K2 Cloud 提供了单一业务流程自动化平台，能够转换云中所有现有流程和表单。它提供了许多灵活的功能，用于在 SharePoint Online 内部和外部开发工作流。使用 K2 Cloud，WSH 的一名开发人员仅用了 8 个月的时间就将 45 个独立的业务流程从现有的本地平台迁移到云端，还有 15 个正在开发中。用户几乎察觉不到向 SharePoint Online 和 K2 Cloud 的过渡，他们继续照常使用其业务流程。

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services.
