关于客户
OSRAM is a leading global lighting manufacturer headquartered in Munich. The company achieved sales of 4.6 billion Euros in the year ending September 30, 2006, with 88 percent of the sales coming from outside Germany. This global player employs more than 40,000 people worldwide, supplies customers in some 150 countries, and has 49 production facilities in 18 countries. The company’s employees are connected via a worldwide Wide Area Network (WAN), Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network, and several Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). MyOsram.com, a fully SAP-integrated sales extranet, provides OSRAM customers with the ability to place expedited orders around the clock.
挑战
OSRAM, a leading global lighting manufacturer, maintains more than 45 websites in 38 languages, including a SAP-integrated sales extranet, MyOsram.com. The company required a solution to ensure continuous, high-speed Internet access for their partners, resellers, and customers to successfully drive and increase revenue. The company’s employees are connected via a worldwide Wide Area Network (WAN), Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network, and several Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). MyOsram.com, a fully SAP-integrated sales extranet, provides OSRAM customers with the ability to place expedited orders around the clock. Uninterrupted Internet and application access are critical to the company’s day-to-day operations. However, achieving network consistency has been a challenge for OSRAM.
解决方案
OSRAM’s IT team decided to upgrade the company’s network with Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs) to balance fluctuating loads, report network errors, redirect data streams where necessary, and enhance network security. Radware’s solution was chosen for its features, particularly DNS load-balancing and health checks. Radware’s solution pack included six ADCs for global failover and redundancy over two data centers, accelerated SAP response time, and enhanced protection against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. In addition, four LinkProofs, for Internet link load balancing at two central hubs in Europe and Asia, were installed to ensure reliable and cost-effective employee Internet connectivity to distributed applications across all remote subsidiaries. The installation ran exactly according to plan and was able to carry out the actual integration in just two hours.

Case Study
Remote Temperature Monitoring of Perishable Goods Saves Money
RMONI was facing temperature monitoring challenges in a cold chain business. A cold chain must be established and maintained to ensure goods have been properly refrigerated during every step of the process, making temperature monitoring a critical business function. Manual registration practice can be very costly, labor intensive and prone to mistakes.

Predictive maintenance in Schneider Electric
Schneider Electric Le Vaudreuil factory in France is recognized by the World Economic Forum as one of the world’s top nine most advanced “lighthouse” sites, applying Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies at large scale. It was experiencing machine-health and unplanned downtime issues on a critical machine within their manufacturing process. They were looking for a solution that could easily leverage existing machine data feeds, be used by machine operators without requiring complex setup or extensive training, and with a fast return on investment.

Leveraging the IoT to Gain a Competitive Edge in International Competition
Many large manufacturers in and outside Japan are competing for larger market share in the same space, expecting a growing demand for projectors in the areas of entertainment, which requires glamor and strong visual performance as well as digital signage that can attract people’s attention. “It is becoming more and more difficult to differentiate ourselves with stand-alone hardware products,” says Kazuyuki Kitagawa, Director of Service & Support at Panasonic AVC Networks. “In order for Panasonic to grow market share and overall business, it is essential for us to develop solutions that deliver significant added value.” Panasonic believes projection failure and quality deterioration should never happen. This is what and has driven them to make their projectors IoT-enabled. More specifically, Panasonic has developed a system that collects data from projectors, visualizes detailed operational statuses, and predicts issues and address them before failure occurs. Their projectors are embedded with a variety of sensors that measure power supply, voltage, video input/ output signals, intake/exhaust air temperatures, cooling fan operations, and light bulb operating time. These sensors have been used to make the projector more intelligent, automatically suspending operation when the temperature rises excessively, and automatically switching light bulbs. Although this was a great first step, Panasonic projectors were still not equipped with any capability to send the data over a network.
