挑战
越来越多的组织正在迁移到云或混合云基础架构。这也适用于中小企业。万神殿自己也经历过。毕竟,公司有很多这样的中小企业作为他们的客户。 “经过多年的准备,我们看到自 2015 年以来对云和托管服务的需求一直在上升。从那时起,我们每年交付的云解决方案都增加了大约 20%,”Siekerman 说。 “这需要对云基础进行投资。对我们来说,这意味着购买新的、可扩展的服务器和随附的软件。 ”

关于客户
Pantheon是定制 ICT 解决方案的提供商。一个彻头彻尾的 ISV,在批发和制造公司的企业资源规划 (ERP)、人力资源管理 (HRM) 和客户关系管理 (CRM) 软件方面具有特殊优势。服务提供商通常以云服务的形式提供这些解决方案,并且始终以具有市场竞争力的价格提供。
解决方案
为满足对托管和云解决方案日益增长的需求,Pantheon 决定使用两台新服务器:一台用于开发客户应用程序,另一台用于为客户托管云服务的生产服务器。后者还用作在当前服务器上运行的应用程序的备份和恢复服务器。对于生产、故障转移和开发环境,Pantheon 选择了 IBM Power Systems S922 服务器。
Pantheon 通过使用适用于 IBM 客户和合作伙伴的融资选项获得了两台 IBM Power Systems 服务器。 IBM 全球融资部为即用型服务器结算原始发票,并在两年内每月向 Pantheon 开具发票,直到服务器全额付款。”

Hydro One Leads the Way In Smart Meter Development
In 2010, Ontario’s energy board mandated that time-of-use (TOU) pricing for consumers be available for all consumers on a regulated price plan. To meet this requirement, Hydro One needed to quickly deploy a smart meter and intelligent communications network solution to meet the provincial government’s requirement at a low cost. The network needed to cover Hydro One’s expansive service territory, which has a land mass twice the size of Texas, and its customers live in a mix of urban, rural, and remote areas, some places only accessible by air, rail, boat or snowmobile. Most importantly, the network needed to enable future enterprise-wide business efficiencies, modernization of distribution infrastructure and enhanced customer service. To meet these needs, Hydro One conceptualized an end-to-end solution leveraging open standards and Internet Protocols (IP) at all communication levels. The utility drew upon industry leaders like Trilliant to realize this vision.

SAS® Analytics for IoT: Smart Grid
Companies face falling revenues, rising infrastructure costs, and increasing risk of outages caused by inconsistent energy production from renewable sources. Less money is coming in as more people and organizations take steps to curb their energy use. Utilities are paying more to maintain and build infrastructure due to increasing complexity, resulting from the rising number of intermittent and variable renewable energy sources connected in the distribution grid.

Enel Secures Italian Power Generation Network
Electric energy operators around the world are working to increase the reliability and cyber resiliency of their systems. This includes Enel, a global power company that manages and monitors the Italian power grid. This grid:• Serves 31 million customers• Has a net installed energy capacity exceeding 31 gigawatts• Includes more than 500 power generation plants,including hydroelectric, thermoelectric, and wind• Is managed and monitored by Enel 24/7/365• Is operated by Terna, the Italian Transmission System Operator (TSO)Enel is responsible for the availability of the grid’s underlying ICS and industrial network. It also manages Regional Control Centers and Interconnection Centers which connect with the TSO. The TSO manages the flow of energy to the grid plus controls and remotely regulates the power generation of power plants, increasing and decreasing power production as required. The complex system of interaction and cooperation between Enel and the TSO has strong security implications as well as operational and business challenges.

IoT based Energy Quality Availability Monitoring Solution
There were several challenges faced:Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny.It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance.The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data.
