关于客户
Zulily is a global shopping destination that offers daily deals on quality products for moms, babies, and children. The company was founded in 2009 and has since become a popular choice for customers around the world. Zulily is headquartered in Seattle, with additional offices in Reno, Columbus, and London. The company works with thousands of vendors to launch up to 5,000 SKUs every day, each product only live for three days. In addition to its constantly changing catalog, Zulily sends a daily email to millions of customers and signs up new members every day. The company also has diverse marketing strategies and multiple sales channels.
挑战
Zulily, a daily deals site for moms, babies, and children, was facing challenges in managing its rapidly growing data. The company's Senior Director of Technical Operations, Don Allen, was tasked with supporting and managing Zulily’s growth through technology. The company's unique business model, which involves launching up to 5,000 SKUs every day, each live for only three days, posed significant analytics and reporting challenges. The company needed a solution that was flexible, fast, and scalable. The Manager of Business Intelligence (BI) for Zulily, Aaron Duke, and Zulily BI Developer Alex Rainey were often pulled away from higher-value work to spend days designing and running reports for internal users. They needed a solution that would empower users while ensuring the integrity of Zulily’s databases.
解决方案
Zulily decided to implement Tableau Server to empower its users and ensure the integrity of its databases. The company participated in the Server Rapid Start offering from Tableau Professional Services to jump-start their implementation. The Server Rapid Start program involved working with a Tableau professional for four days, during which they learned about security, data handling, and best practices for using Tableau Server. The program helped Zulily save time and increased their confidence in their initial launch of Tableau. The implementation of Tableau Server allowed Zulily to focus on the data and not on creating reports, enabling them to work on more complex analytics and strategic efforts. The platform also allowed users who weren't experts in database technology or SQL to build complex reports, removing the choke point of report requests.

Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations
Case Study
Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.
Case Study
Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.
Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
