挑战
TSPL, a coal-based thermal power plant located in Banawala village in Mansa district of Punjab, India, was facing issues with its traditional client-server environment. The applications were being served on multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) connections from across thousands of kilometers away at Vedanta's central data center at Jharsuguda, one of the most industrially developed districts in the state of Odisha, India. Due to the remote location and connectivity issues, TSPL users often faced application latency or downtimes resulting in loss of productivity. Occasional maintenance issues of local desktop infrastructure added to the problems. TSPL decided to revamp its IT ecosystem to address the issues of IT availability and manageability.
关于客户
One of the first few super-critical power plants to be constructed in India, the Talwandi Sabo Power Limited (TSPL), is a coal-based thermal power plant located in Banawala village in Mansa district of Punjab, India. TSPL, a wholly owned Vedanta subsidiary, operates all the three units of 660 MW each (totaling at 1,980 MW) of the power plant built on super-critical technologies that are environmental friendly and energy efficient. Until recently, TSPL ran a traditional client-server environment with about a hundred on-location users working on critical applications and databases. These applications were being served on multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) connections from across thousands of kilometers away at Vedanta's central data center at Jharsuguda, one of the most industrially developed districts in the state of Odisha, India.
解决方案
TSPL opted to streamline its IT operations by consolidating its legacy server and storage environment onto the efficient HCI platform from HPE SimpliVity that combined its IT infrastructure and business-critical applications into a single, integrated all-flash solution. By virtualizing its desktop infrastructure onto the HCI platform, TSPL has provided 24x7 availability for its applications and data to its users with seamless scalability and everything is now being managed centrally on the HCI environment, supported by a team of just a couple of on-location personnel. Three HCI nodes of HPE SimpliVity were deployed to converge the edge data center at TSPL, with about 100 desktops rolled out on a virtualized environment running on the same server workloads.

Case Study
Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
