挑战
Yellow Pages Group (YPG) has undergone a significant transformation from a print company to a web-based company, expanding into new channels including social and mobile. This rapid growth led to a messy and ad hoc deployment of applications running on different technologies, making it difficult to integrate all properties into a single view. As web traffic began to grow exponentially, YPG’s challenges became more acute. They diagnosed web performance issues using tracing and logging, which was time-consuming and essentially left them in the dark. Whenever developers released a new version of a website, they would inevitably encounter problems and need to roll everything back.

解决方案
YPG implemented New Relic to provide a robust application monitoring solution. New Relic provided a complete snapshot of YPG's environment, allowing them to spot issues at a glance. The Service Map feature was particularly helpful in diagnosing issues quickly and accurately. YPG also used New Relic Mobile to see how an app is performing by version, platform, and network, all from the end user’s perspective. This allowed them to see actual performance across the entire user base and identify specific flows that might be causing a performance issue. YPG also used New Relic Plugins to monitor their many database servers, including Oracle, SQL Server, and MySQL in both real and cloud instances.

Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.
Case Study
Vodafone Hosted On AWS
Vodafone found that traffic for the applications peak during the four-month period when the international cricket season is at its height in Australia. During the 2011/2012 cricket season, 700,000 consumers downloaded the Cricket Live Australia application. Vodafone needed to be able to meet customer demand, but didn’t want to invest in additional resources that would be underutilized during cricket’s off-season.
