挑战
他们的自动化计划无法扩展
在这个拥有 129,000 人的组织中，整个网络团队只是少数专业人士。他们依靠一些 Powershell 脚本与 BlueCat 的 API 进行交互。
虽然宠物项目证明了自动化 DDI 服务的价值，但团队开始遇到规模问题。
解决方案
毕业于由 BlueCat 网关支持的零接触服务器构建计划
使用 BlueCat 的 Gateway 网络自动化平台构建了许多可扩展、完全支持的自动化。其中之一是一个从摇篮到坟墓的过程，涵盖了从服务器构建到退役的所有内容。分布式设施网络服务零接触
以下是自动化的工作原理：用户通过 ServiceNow 以自助服务格式进行选择，提供有关新服务器位置和用途的输入。然后，Gateway 调用 VMware 的 vRealize Orchestrator (vRO) 为主机创建前缀。接下来，根据用户的选择，后端算法创建主机中间。后缀是三位或四位数字。
提供主机名后，用户可以启动服务器，从 BlueCat 获取下一个可用的 MAC 地址和 IP 地址，然后返回 ServiceNow 并关闭请求。

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
