TURKSTAT: Fast, Secure Data Exchange with webMethods - Software AG Industrial IoT Case Study
TURKSTAT: Fast, Secure Data Exchange with webMethods
TURKSTAT, the Turkish Statistical Institute, is responsible for Turkey’s official statistics on a wide range of topics. As part of its corporate e-transformation, the institute aimed to provide fast, easy and secure access to statistics needed by different interest groups. Manual methods of sharing this information were insufficient. TURKSTAT needed to provide data to outside groups categorically, according to user needs, and in a dynamic and sustainable way. As more organizations needed to share data, TURKSTAT found using manual methods or writing code was inadequate. The institute urgently needed a high-speed data exchange platform. Additionally, security was a key concern. TURKSTAT has always been a trusted institution. Decisionmakers are confident in statistical information published by TURKSTAT, and providers of data are certain that their privacy is well-protected. That level of trust could not change.

webMethods BPMS Speeds Processing of 7,500 Pieces of Mail – From Days to Hours
The UNIQA Group insurance companies receive thousands of paper documents by mail every day. Sorting and forwarding these documents for action was taking too much time and effort, which is why UNIQA sought an automated business process management solution. Its goals were to shorten processing times, lower administrative costs and better distribute the workload to speed up processing. In the past, document distribution was time- and staff-intensive. It could take several days before documents finally reached the right administrator, who then had to scan them for documentation and archiving purposes.

Efficient Mainframe Integration – The Backbone for Multi- Channeling and New Distribution Concepts in the Fund Business
All direct trading operations at DWS are conducted via its IKS investment account service. As Europe’s largest supplier of public funds, DWS has been handling all necessary customer and account management since the late 1980s with an Adabas- and Natural-based mainframe application. In the late 1990s, DWS put its entire It landscape, including this essential application, to the test. the need for action arose in particular because of insufficient integration of the different It systems. A need for modernization was quickly identified in the IKS department, DWS’s internal distribution channel for the funds trade. Over the years, a number of isolated solutions with only limited interaction capabilities had emerged. The mainframe application was developed with Adabas and Natural in the late 1980s for central customer and account management. It was distressing that marketing and distribution applications, such as call center and document management, could only access the mainframe application via workaround solutions or, in some cases, could not access it at all.

Reaping the Benefits of Improved Efficiency with the webMethods Product Suite
Icelandair, one of the largest private companies in Iceland, was facing a challenge. Despite the increase in online ticket sales, the company was not realizing the expected cost savings, staffing reductions, and operational efficiency gains. For every reduction in telephone sales man-hours, there was a corresponding increase in the amount of back-office effort needed to support online sales. The company was also struggling with regional variations in ticket sales processes, which were not standardized across the organization. The airline industry is highly competitive, and airlines must constantly seek out efficiency in their operations to remain profitable. Icelandair needed to operate on the highest possible load factor and attract and retain customers who now shop online for their flight needs.

Modernizing Legacy Applications Boosts Efficiency and Business - Software AG Industrial IoT Case Study
Modernizing Legacy Applications Boosts Efficiency and Business
Hibernian General Insurance, one of Ireland's largest and most respected insurers, was facing challenges in serving insurance brokers and policy holders while reducing the time and cost to administer insurance policies. One of Hibernian’s key applications is its Branch Policy System (BPS)—a character-based application used by internal administration and call center staff to service insurance brokers and policy holders. To improve response times to these customers and reduce the costs of administering insurance policies, Hibernian decided to take a service-oriented approach and create a Web-based, easy-to-use interface that leverages and reuses existing key functionality contained within the business-critical Branch Policy application. Initially, Hibernian planned to replace its legacy application with an off-the-shelf general insurance package. However, over the years, there has been a large investment in this system which has provided users with a very high-level of functionality. This was found extremely hard to replace with an off-the-shelf general insurance package.

Automating the Demand Chain with Integrated Product Replenishment
7-Eleven, the world's largest convenience store chain, faced a significant challenge in maintaining a supply chain and distribution network to support thousands of stores. The company had to coordinate orders with hundreds of suppliers to deliver products to stores on a daily basis. Many of its smaller suppliers did not have the infrastructure in place to support Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) technologies, which 7-Eleven used to automate the exchange of orders and business documents with some of its largest partners. As a result, the company had to rely largely on manual processes with paper invoices faxed, mailed or emailed into the company, and manually keyed into back-end financial applications.

CERN Gets Reliable Data Access Down to a Science Using Terracotta - Software AG Industrial IoT Case Study
CERN Gets Reliable Data Access Down to a Science Using Terracotta
Physicists at CERN conduct extensive experiments using particle accelerators. A variety of process visualization and control systems is used to monitor the equipment, including the TIM system and Diagnostics and Monitoring (DIAMON). TIM monitors around 120,000 sensors in such areas as building services engineering, while DIAMON monitors some of the equipment and IT components related to the particle accelerators. Technicians and engineers at the control stations have dashboards that show the status of the systems; the dashboards are continuously updated based on the data from the monitoring systems. It is, therefore, of the utmost importance to CERN to operate the monitoring platforms in the most fail-safe way possible. Because these systems play the role of a control center, unexpected occurrences, power outages and major accidents result in a large number of events. One of the requirements for the implementation was that the incoming data could be processed in less than one second. Even during the greatest peaks, the infrastructure must be stable enough to handle the large number of status messages and help the staff in the control center and engineers troubleshooting the systems.
