挑战
When Eric Peterson joined Tableau in 2011, he began working in the marketing department’s development team. The team was responsible for managing a number of Drupal web applications, including the main corporate website — but he soon found himself facing considerable limitations. “The network operations team was handling all of our monitoring,” he explains. “We had very little access to their monitoring data, so we had almost no insight into the issues we were facing in production. We were basically flying blind.”
关于客户
Tableau Software (NYSE: DATA) helps people — from individuals to enterprises — see and understand their data like never before. The company develops business intelligence solutions to make data analysis fast, easy, beautiful and useful for anyone and everyone. Created by computer scientists at Stanford in 2003, the company grew its revenue from $34.2 million in 2010 to $127.7 million in 2012. Tableau went public on the New York Stock Exchange in May 2013. Tableau uses Drupal. Its main corporate website is self-hosted, with secondary sites hosted on Pantheon.
解决方案
After managing Tableau’s web properties with very little visibility into key performance metrics, Peterson and his team began looking for a better solution. “In 2012, New Relic introduced support for Drupal, so that was our signal to check it out,” he says. “After deployment — which took maybe an hour at most — we gained instant access to the kind of data we’d been lacking for months.” For Peterson, the New Relic dashboard is a one-stop shop for critical information on real time application performance. “There’s one screen with all the data you need for high level visibility,” he says. “Then you can drill down to get deeper insights as necessary. I especially like the Transaction Traces feature, which shows me the exact line of code that’s causing an issue.”

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.
