关于客户
美国护士协会 (ANA) 是美国护士协会企业 (ANAE) 的一部分,后者是一个为美国各地的注册护士及其患者提供倡导、认证和教育的组织大家庭。 ANA 的使命是通过护理的力量改变国家的健康状况,倡导在美国各地拥有 400 万注册护士。该组织拥有约 400 名员工,在管理和优化其 Azure 环境方面面临挑战,特别是在 COVID-19 大流行之后,需要迅速转向远程工作。
挑战
美国护士协会 (ANA) 是一个在美国倡导 400 万注册护士及其患者的组织,该组织面临着 Azure 环境的挑战。成本不断上升,该组织无法确定推动成本增加的因素。随着 COVID-19 大流行的蔓延,全日空需要迅速将 250 多名员工转变为远程员工。这种情况需要战略合作伙伴帮助管理、导航和优化 ANA 400 名员工的 Microsoft Azure 使用情况。全日空还需要加强其安全态势,以防止系统和数据受到攻击,尤其是在转向远程工作的情况下。
解决方案
ANA 与 Catapult Systems 建立了战略合作伙伴关系,以管理和优化其 Azure 环境,重点关注安全、运营和支出。 Catapult Systems 评估了当前成本,咨询了 ANA 以了解其业务目标,并制定了 Azure 支出预算。他们在 ANA 的 Azure 门户中创建了仪表板,以提供趋势成本数据并突出显示可能导致计划外支出的成本变化。 Catapult Systems 还帮助 ANA 的 250 名员工在基于 Azure 的基础设施的支持下在家工作。为了获得对 Azure 环境的全面可见性和了解,ANA 利用了 Catapult 的 Azure 管理服务 (AMS) 和 EverWatch(Catapult 的专有 Azure 监控和警报工具)。 Catapult 还为 ANA 的 IT 团队提供了详细的报告和定期建议,从而制定了更稳健的变更管理策略。

IoT System for Tunnel Construction
The Zenitaka Corporation ('Zenitaka') has two major business areas: its architectural business focuses on structures such as government buildings, office buildings, and commercial facilities, while its civil engineering business is targeted at structures such as tunnels, bridges and dams. Within these areas, there presented two issues that have always persisted in regard to the construction of mountain tunnels. These issues are 'improving safety" and "reducing energy consumption". Mountain tunnels construction requires a massive amount of electricity. This is because there are many kinds of electrical equipment being used day and night, including construction machinery, construction lighting, and ventilating fan. Despite this, the amount of power consumption is generally not tightly managed. In many cases, the exact amount of power consumption is only ascertained when the bill from the power company becomes available. Sometimes, corporations install demand-monitoring equipment to help curb the maximum power demanded. However, even in these cases, the devices only allow the total volume of power consumption to be ascertained, or they may issue warnings to prevent the contracted volume of power from being exceeded. In order to tackle the issue of reducing power consumption, it was first necessary to obtain an accurate breakdown of how much power was being used in each particular area. In other words, we needed to be able to visualize the amount of power being consumed. Safety, was also not being managed very rigorously. Even now, tunnel construction sites often use a 'name label' system for managing entry into the work site. Specifically, red labels with white reverse sides that bear the workers' names on both sides are displayed at the tunnel work site entrance. The workers themselves then flip the name label to the appropriate side when entering or exiting from the work site to indicate whether or not they are working inside the tunnel at any given time. If a worker forgets to flip his or her name label when entering or exiting from the tunnel, management cannot be performed effectively. In order to tackle the challenges mentioned above, Zenitaka decided to build a system that could improve the safety of tunnel construction as well as reduce the amount of power consumed. In other words, this new system would facilitate a clear picture of which workers were working in each location at the mountain tunnel construction site, as well as which processes were being carried out at those respective locations at any given time. The system would maintain the safety of all workers while also carefully controlling the electrical equipment to reduce unnecessary power consumption. Having decided on the concept, our next concern was whether there existed any kind of robust hardware that would not break down at the construction work site, that could move freely in response to changes in the working environment, and that could accurately detect workers and vehicles using radio frequency identification (RFID). Given that this system would involve many components that were new to Zenitaka, we decided to enlist the cooperation of E.I.Sol Co., Ltd. ('E.I.Sol') as our joint development partner, as they had provided us with a highly practical proposal.

Splunk Partnership Ties Together Big Data & IoT Services
Splunk was faced with the need to meet emerging customer demands for interfacing IoT projects to its suite of services. The company required an IoT partner that would be able to easily and quickly integrate with its Splunk Enterprise platform, rather than allocating development resources and time to building out an IoT interface and application platform.

Condition Based Monitoring for Industrial Systems
A large construction aggregate plant operates 10 high horsepower Secondary Crusher Drive Motors and associated conveyor belts, producing 600 tons of product per hour. All heavy equipment requires maintenance, but the aggregate producer’s costs were greatly magnified any time that the necessary maintenance was unplanned and unscheduled. The product must be supplied to the customers on a tight time schedule to fulfill contracts, avoid penalties, and prevent the loss of future business. Furthermore, a sudden failure in one of the drive motors would cause rock to pile up in unwanted locations, extending the downtime and increasing the costs.Clearly, preventative maintenance was preferable to unexpected failures. So, twice each year, the company brought in an outside vendor to attach sensors to the motors, do vibration studies, measure bearing temperatures and attempt to assess the health of the motors. But that wasn’t enough. Unexpected breakdowns continued to occur. The aggregate producer decided to upgrade to a Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) sensor system that could continually monitor the motors in real time, apply data analytics to detect changes in motor behavior before they developed into major problems, and alert maintenance staff via email or text, anywhere they happened to be.A wired sensor network would have been cost prohibitive. An aggregate plant has numerous heavy vehicles moving around, so any cabling would have to be protected. But the plant covers 400 acres, and the cable would have to be trenched to numerous locations. Cable wasn’t going to work. The aggregate producer needed a wireless solution.
