关于客户
Gijima 是南非领先的 ICT 公司,为从企业客户到中小型企业的广泛客户提供云基础设施、IT 和外包服务。该公司 100% 为黑人所有,拥有 1 级 BBBEE 地位,在 16 个地区拥有 3,000 名员工。 Gijima 为 1,000 多个满意的客户提供服务,并在其最先进的 Tier-3 数据中心为许多最大的客户托管关键业务系统。当Gijima收购数据中心时,它继承了大部分现有的服务器和存储基础设施及其客户端系统。
挑战
Gijima 是南非领先的 ICT 公司之一,其继承的服务器和存储基础设施面临着挑战。大部分存储已达到使用寿命,Gijima 认识到升级可以显着提高性能和可管理性。然而,该公司需要将其数据迁移到新的存储阵列,而不会对客户的系统造成任何干扰。此外,Gijima 需要一个能够以有吸引力的价格提供按需可扩展性的合作伙伴,以满足从企业客户到中小型企业的广泛客户需求。该公司最先进的 Tier 3 数据中心为其许多最大的客户托管关键业务系统,这使得无缝过渡到新存储阵列的需求变得更加重要。
解决方案
Gijima 选择 Hitachi Vantara 作为其存储更新值得信赖的合作伙伴。该公司在其生产数据中心安装了两个 Hitachi VSP 5000 系列阵列,并安装了两个 VSP G700 阵列用于灾难恢复。这些全闪存存储系统取代了旧的、笨重的旋转磁盘阵列,显着整合了物理基础设施。得益于日立存储虚拟化操作系统 RF 和日立 TrueCopy 远程复制软件的无中断迁移功能,客户系统的迁移在四个月内完成,大部分系统无缝转移到新阵列,没有任何停机时间。 Gijima 还升级了其存储管理软件,采用 Hitachi Ops Center 进行存储管理和配置、报告和分析以及数据保护和复制管理。

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.
