Blanc und Fischer IT Services | Professional Services | 8971 | $1.6B | Germany | IBM | IBM Spectrum Virtualize | Network Virtualisation | 2018 | n/a | In 2018, Blanc und Fischer IT Services GmbH implemented IBM Spectrum Virtualize as the core storage virtualization layer, aligning its infrastructure under a Network Virtualisation strategy. The deployment of IBM Spectrum Virtualize was part of a broader platform standardization to support SAP HANA and next generation SAP applications on IBM Power Systems and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The implementation architecture combined IBM Power System E980 servers with an IBM FlashSystem 9200 storage solution built on IBM Spectrum Virtualize, using advanced virtualization features to present a unified, high-performance storage layer. IBM Spectrum Virtualize provided storage virtualization, synchronous replication and multi-site consistency controls to support high availability across two data center locations and to maintain data consistency for mission-critical SAP workloads. Operationally, IBM Spectrum Virtualize was integrated into a consolidated SAP landscape running SAP Manufacturing Execution on SAP HANA, with plans to run SAP S/4HANA, SAP BW/4HANA and existing SAP applications such as SAP Global Trade Services, SAP Supplier Lifecycle Management, SAP Supplier Relationship Management, SAP Business Intelligence and SAP ERP Human Capital Management on the same platform. The scope covered Blanc und Fischer group companies and production sites, initially scaling manufacturing management from three plants in Germany and Canada with a roadmap to additional sites. Governance and process changes centered on platform standardization to Red Hat Enterprise Linux for SAP Solutions, close collaboration with IBM and Red Hat for rapid production cutover, and a planned shift to DevOps and automation using Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform and Red Hat Satellite. The IT organization articulated a consolidation target to reduce system and application instance sprawl by around 30 percent as part of platform governance and rollout sequencing. Explicit outcomes reported by Blanc und Fischer IT Services GmbH include 30 percent faster response times for SAP workloads and use of 50 percent fewer processor cores across the consolidated environment, with POWER9 technology delivering up to 25 percent core reductions for select workloads. IBM Spectrum Virtualize enabled a unified, cost efficient storage and business continuity layer that supported these performance and consolidation results. | |

Della Volpe | Transportation | 1300 | $200M | Brazil | IBM | IBM Spectrum Virtualize | Network Virtualisation | 2019 | n/a | In 2019, Della Volpe implemented IBM Spectrum Virtualize as part of a broader infrastructure program supporting a first-of-a-kind SAP S/4HANA deployment for road cargo operations. The deployment aligns with the Network Virtualisation category and underpinned a mission-critical transportation management environment that IBM and Della Volpe put into production in under three months. The implementation was built on IBM Power Systems H924 hardware, using IBM PowerVM to administer 15 logical partitions running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications. IBM Spectrum Virtualize manages 106 distinct storage volumes provisioned on IBM FlashSystem 7200 arrays, providing centralized storage virtualization, volume management, thin provisioning, and scale out capability for the production landscape. Functional components implemented include SAP S/4HANA for core transaction processing, SAP BW/4HANA for analytics, and SAP Fiori for user interfaces, with IBM Spectrum Virtualize providing the storage virtualization layer that ties application tiers to on-premises storage infrastructure. The deployment targets transportation management and operations teams in Brazil and supports high availability production operations as Della Volpe scales out its environment. Governance and operational changes were supported by IBM through hands-on issue resolution during the rapid rollout, and Della Volpe uses the combined controls of IBM Spectrum Virtualize and IBM PowerVM to manage provisioning, resilience, snapshots, and lifecycle updates without increasing administrative overhead. The company cites added security and resiliency from an on-premises architecture while retaining centralized storage virtualization management. | |

Galenica | Life Sciences | 4511 | $4.9B | Switzerland | IBM | IBM Spectrum Virtualize | Network Virtualisation | 2019 | ITpoint Systems | In 2019 Galenica deployed IBM Spectrum Virtualize as a strategic component of its Network Virtualisation estate. IBM Spectrum Virtualize was provisioned in the central Datacenter ITDC in Switzerland, aligning with vendor IBM and targeting enterprise storage virtualization across Galenica's Swiss operational footprint and warehouse sites. The implementation configured IBM Spectrum Virtualize for standard block virtualization capabilities common to Network Virtualisation environments, including storage pooling, thin provisioning, snapshot and replication workflows, and tiered provisioning to support mixed workload density. Configuration work was coordinated alongside IBM Power6 and IBM Power8 consolidation activities led by internal senior systems staff, ensuring storage profiles matched platform consolidation requirements. Operational integration centered on enterprise application workloads, explicitly supporting SAP S4 HANA ERP and SAP Basis administration tasks, and technical responsibility for Warehouse Management Systems in Switzerland. IBM Spectrum Virtualize was used to centralize storage provisioning and replication for SAP S4 HANA ERP EWM components and WMS instances, and it played a role in consolidating storage resources during integration of multiple acquired company IT landscapes into the central Datacenter. Governance and rollout included engagement with ITpoint Systems as the SI VAR partner, and internal ownership rested with senior system specialists responsible for SAP Basis, UNIX administration, and WMS technical operations. Change control and centralized storage administration processes were instituted in the Datacenter to manage configuration, replication policies, and application-aligned provisioning for SAP and warehouse operations. | |
