挑战
Network Data Systems (NDS), an IT infrastructure professional and managed services firm, was facing challenges in tracking engineering resources for internal budgeting, workload planning, and billing. They also needed to enhance their reporting services to customers regarding IT environments and equipment. The company was using a manual process to report on internal business processes, including its help desk ticketing system, which was falling short. They needed a simpler and more efficient way to collect and share information about things like how many hours they work with each customer and which help desk tickets are open or closed.
关于客户
Network Data Systems (NDS) is an IT infrastructure professional and managed services firm that specializes in IT infrastructure services. They employ a team of highly skilled engineers to deliver consulting, transformation, and management solutions for network and server infrastructure, unified communications, data center/cloud, and mobile computing. NDS is trusted to serve some of the nation’s largest, most complex corporations and Federal agencies. They manage other companies’ IT equipment and need the ability to accurately track their engineering resources for budgeting, workload planning, and billing. NDS also needs to show its customers the data associated with their IT environments and equipment.
解决方案
NDS deployed Information Builders’ WebFOCUS to create dashboards and reports for internal reporting and a Business Intelligence (BI) app that its clients will use to manage their equipment and the metrics associated with the usage of that equipment. WebFOCUS was used to create dashboards, as well as to display existing reports that had been written in SQL. The dashboards were enhanced using jQuery, a cross-browser JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side scripting of HTML. WebFOCUS was also used to create a customer-facing application that is expected to generate revenue for NDS and enhance the services it offers to its clients. The application uses WebFOCUS to make metrics readily available to NDS customers about usage levels for equipment in their IT and communications infrastructure.

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.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
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. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
