VMware Data Solutions Industrie-Gespräche Folge #1: Wie Sie mit VMware Data den Durchsatz in der Fertigung verbessern und die Rentabilität steigern

In diesem Webinar erfahren Sie, wie Sie mit VMware Data Solutions* das Beste aus Ihren automatisierten Prozessen in der Fertigung herausholen können, sowohl on-site als auch at-the-edge. 

Fortschritte in der Fertigungsautomatisierung sind nichts Neues, vor allem nicht im großen Maßstab. Seit den Anfängen von Covid haben jedoch viele kleinere Hersteller in strategische Automatisierungstools investiert, um ihren Durchsatz zu verbessern und die Rentabilität zu steigern. Dies führt dazu, dass sie ihre Back-Office-Systeme modernisieren müssen, um die Kundenzufriedenheit zu erhöhen. Bei der Herstellung von Kleinserien erwarten die Kunden das gleiche Maß an Produktaktualisierungen in den verschiedenen Auftrags- und Fertigungsstufen wie bei der Online-Bestellung einer Pizza. 

Das Verschieben von Kundenbestellungen über Excel und Importskripten in eine Datenbank und das anschließende Abfragen der Datenbank, um Bauanweisungen an fortschrittliche FTS und Roboterprozesse zu senden, schränkt die Effizienz und das Wachstum des Unternehmens ein.

Wir werden erörtern und demonstrieren, wie VMware RabbitMQ* zusammen mit VMware GemFire* und VMware SQL* gemeinsam eingesetzt werden kann, um eine ereignisgesteuerte Echtzeitarchitektur zu schaffen. Darüber hinaus werden wir untersuchen, wie dies skaliert und Hochverfügbarkeitsausfallsicherheit bieten kann.

In today’s world, technology is constantly evolving and improving. This means that the software companies that create the technology need to perpetually update and upgrade their offerings in order to stay ahead of the curve. For state governments, this presents a unique challenge. On one hand, they need to adopt new technologies in order to provide better services for their citizens. On the other hand, they need to be cautious about spending taxpayer money on unnecessary upgrades.  

So, how can state governments strike the right balance? By operating as software factory and delivering a modernized approach to state government applications. Here’s what that means. 

A software factory is a center of excellence that is constantly innovating and improving its products. This means that they are always looking for ways to make their products better, faster, and more user-friendly. They are also always looking for ways to reduce costs and increase efficiencies. In other words, a modern software factory is focused on results. And for state governments that require results and state constituents that demand results, a software factory can be the answer. 

Reduce Costs 
- A software factory can help reduce the cost of upgrading and maintaining government systems. 

Increased Efficiency 
- By centralizing all software development in one place, a software factory can increase efficiency and speed up the process of getting new products to market. 

Improved Quality 
- The focus on quality at a software factory means that government systems will be improved in terms of both functionality and usability. 

Increased Innovation 
- As technology advances, so too must our government systems keep pace. A software factory is well-positioned to drive innovation and modernization in the public sector

“Get the job done better”: The best practices of modern software factories

It’s 2023, and the remote productivity push we felt at the beginning of the pandemic has mostly faded away. Instead, software leaders are being asked to build teams that can deliver more features with fewer resources.

Increasingly, organisations are looking to leverage data-driven insights to power strategic decision-making and set the predictions for future business direction.

Historically, most of this valuable data was captured via feedback or logs produced by the application itself. Due to the humongous nature of the data and varied formats by which it was captured (unstructured, semi-structured and structured), these valuable insights were often under-utilised during business and technical decisions.

With the current growth in technology, however, we now have the ability to process, “any data anywhere and anytime” to support unified data-driven decisions. Join us to learn how your teams can successfully turn raw data into valuable insights:
- An Overview of Unified Analytics
- Why Do We Need to Process Data Anywhere, Anytime
- Achieving Unified Analytics with VMware Tanzu
- Practical Applications and Use Cases

DevSecOps Tech Talks Session 1: Build a Multi-Cloud Secure Software Supply Chain

Over the last few years, software containers have become a big deal. According to Gartner, "by 2023, Kubernetes will be deployed in more than 80% of all on-premises private cloud and cloud-inspired environments, up from less than 10% today, requiring I&O to acquire operational competencies." 

The wide adoption of containers has been primarily driven by developers. But to see real success, you need to work across both development and operations teams to ensure the environment in which these containers run can operate securely and at scale.

Join Pivotal Platform Architect, Adam Fowler, for a webinar where we’ll explore how a platform offering, layered on top of containers, enables developers to build and deploy applications at speed and scale, thereby increasing productivity and product time to market.
