关于客户
HP Inc., headquartered in Palo Alto, California, is a global technology company with a diverse product and service portfolio that includes personal systems, printers, and 3D printing solutions. The company's vision is to create technology that improves the lives of individuals, organizations, and communities worldwide. HP's partner ecosystem is a critical component of its business, generating 80% of its revenue through data exchanges for product tracking, sell-through inventory, and more. As a large corporate entity, HP is committed to leveraging advanced technologies to enhance its business operations and provide value to its partners and customers. The company faced challenges in scaling its business intelligence and analytics capabilities to meet the evolving demands of its partner ecosystem and business models.
挑战
HP faced significant challenges in scaling its business intelligence (BI) and analytics capabilities. The company's partner ecosystem, which generates 80% of its revenue, required extensive data exchanges for product tracking and inventory management. However, HP's existing BI toolset was ineffective for scaling and managing this data. The BI team relied on a traditional collection of OLAP cubes, a custom-built .NET user interface, and numerous offline reports. This system was slow, taking 24–48 hours to refresh data and even longer for analysis. New data deployments took three months, rendering the data obsolete by the time it was ready for use. The BI team became a bottleneck, spending excessive time on data analysis requests instead of strategic initiatives. End users needed a self-service solution to access and analyze data efficiently.
解决方案
HP selected Snowflake for data warehousing and data sharing workloads and ThoughtSpot for search and AI-driven analytics. ThoughtSpot allows users to create new data-driven insights using simple natural language or surface insights generated by others across the enterprise. By leveraging AI, ThoughtSpot goes beyond answering known questions, detecting trends, and identifying anomalies and patterns, to suggesting new questions users wouldn’t think to ask. HP ingests data into Snowflake and uses Embrace to gain seamless access to that data from ThoughtSpot. This integration allows HP to manage compliance and supplies management data, as well as serial number data, which tracks products in use globally. Snowflake and ThoughtSpot are now used for various analytics, including pricing, bid desk analytics, supplies management, partner risk management, customer performance management, and channel performance and profitability. The solution has transformed HP's approach to data management and analytics, enabling faster, more efficient, and self-service access to insights.

SET Creative Ditches Google Vault for Datto Backupify
When Kienholz first started at SET, the staff was using Microsoft Outlook for email with no form of data backup. It became apparent that something needed to change as the staff was often burdened with trying to recover emails from departed employees. Kienholz transitioned the team to Google’s Gmail and implemented Google Vault for backup purposes. While SET employees quickly adjusted to Gmail, which many use for personal email, the same could not be said for Google Vault. “Unlike most Google products, Vault was not user friendly at all. It’s very hard to search for items. We never really figured out how to do a restore either,” explained Kienholz. Due to SET’s work with high-profile brands, projects often go through many rounds of revisions right down to the eleventh hour. This means that every bit of information - especially data living in project managers’ emails - is crucial to delivering clients a polished design at deadline.

Sawback IT and Datto Save Client From a Costly Mistake
Ballistic Echo, a software development house, faced a critical challenge when human error led to the deletion of thousands of lines of unique code. This incident occurred before the code was pushed to source control, resulting in significant loss of time, revenue, and work. The previous file-level backup solution they used was slow and inefficient, making it nearly impossible to manually recreate the lost work. The need for a more reliable and efficient business continuity solution became evident to avoid such disasters in the future.

Zapier Aggregates Multiple Analytics in a Single Dashboard with the New Relic Platform
Zapier, a company that enables non-technical users to push data between hundreds of web applications, was facing a challenge in automating and provisioning servers for optimal performance. The company's environment consisted of 50 Linux servers on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), a Django application split across several servers, and a backend consisting of a dynamic number of celery task workers fed by messages published to a RabbitMQ cluster. They also maintained a number of internal web services on nginx in front of Gunicorn and Node.js processes. Redis handled simple key and value stores, with logging handled by Graylog2 and ElasticSearch. However, they realized that no level of automation would be sufficient without an effective monitoring solution in place. They needed a tool that could provide immediate alerts when something was breaking and could be easily implemented into their environment.
