Global Blue | Professional Services | 1783 | $311M | Switzerland | Magnolia International | Magnolia PaaS | Apps Development | 2023 |
In 2023 Global Blue deployed Magnolia PaaS as a headless content and delivery platform, using Magnolia DX Cloud/PaaS to support global marketing and multilingual customer experiences. The implementation was executed by Arvato Systems and is documented on the Magnolia case study and partner pages, which explicitly reference Magnolia DX Cloud and Arvato Systems as the system integrator. This deployment sits within the Apps Development category and serves corporate marketing and customer-facing mobile channels.
The solution architecture centers on a headless Magnolia site hosted on Magnolia PaaS, leveraging API-first content delivery and centralized editorial workflows to manage multilingual content. Magnolia AI translation was integrated as a core capability to automate and scale localization, reducing manual translation steps and enabling near real-time content localization. Magnolia PaaS and Magnolia DX Cloud were used together to provide platform services, content staging, and delivery automation aligned with Apps Development functional patterns.
Operational coverage began with implementation activity in Switzerland while enabling global rollout of marketing campaigns and multilingual experiences, including mobile apps that consume headless APIs. Arvato Systems implemented the platform and integration layers, coordinating content model configuration, translation automation, and delivery endpoints for mobile and web channels. The implementation emphasizes a centralized content hub that publishes through APIs to distributed customer touchpoints.
Governance and process changes focused on editorial role-based workflows and automated translation orchestration via Magnolia AI translation, streamlining content handoffs. The case study reports translation cost reductions of about 70 percent and a reduction in translation delivery times from weeks to seconds, outcomes tied directly to the use of Magnolia AI translation on Magnolia DX Cloud and Magnolia PaaS.

HANSA-FLEX | Manufacturing | 5152 | $692M | Germany | Microsoft | Microsoft Azure NetApp Files | Cloud Storage | 2020 |
In 2020, HANSA-FLEX implemented Microsoft Azure NetApp Files as part of a Cloud Storage deployment to migrate 20 business-critical SAP systems to Microsoft Azure. The project was executed with Arvato Systems and Kaemena's team and completed in roughly three months, the time it normally takes to procure SAP hardware, making HANSA-FLEX the first company in Germany to use Microsoft Azure NetApp Files in a purely SAP project.
The implementation used Microsoft Azure NetApp Files to host consolidated SAP HANA and IBM Db2 workloads, enabling data transformation, reorganization, and compression during the migration. Configuration emphasized scalable file share capacity and high-performance shared storage, detaching storage sizing from fixed physical SSDs and simplifying backup processes, which reduced the need to juggle multiple drives.
The deployment ran 20 SAP systems on Azure and integrated Microsoft Azure platform services with on-premises SAP architectures during cutover, requiring coordinated sequencing and system conversions to minimize end-user disruption. Arvato Systems and Kaemena's team managed migration orchestration and operational runbooks, with the operational scope concentrated on IT operations and SAP administration where administrators reported a reduced need for overnight interventions.
Reported outcomes include the migrated database occupying one-third of its previous storage footprint and avoiding the need to provision up to five premium SSDs that would otherwise have been expected. Stakeholders stated it is too early to quantify savings, while noting increased scalability, pay-for-what-you-use billing, and the ability to run enhanced security and backup scenarios within Microsoft’s managed environment, and signaling future extension into Microsoft IoT and Microsoft HoloLens driven remote support initiatives.

Hapag-Lloyd | Transportation | 17100 | $22.4B | Germany | SAP | SAP BPC Financial Close | Financial Consolidation and Close | 2017 |
In 2017, Hapag-Lloyd implemented SAP BPC Financial Close in the Financial Consolidation and Close category. Arvato Systems led a nine month company-wide deployment to deliver IFRS-compliant reporting based on SAP Financial Consolidation.
The implementation focused on SAP BPC Financial Close consolidation and close capabilities, configured to support group level consolidation, statutory and IFRS reporting packages, currency translation, and intercompany eliminations. The project included orchestration of period end close tasks and configuration of reporting hierarchies and consolidation rules typical for financial close platforms.
Data collection and validation workflows were established to ingest trial balance and consolidation entries from source ledgers, with audit trail and control points to support compliance requirements. Operational scope targeted group finance and corporate accounting, centralizing financial consolidation processes across Hapag-Lloyd legal entities.
Arvato Systems applied structured rollout governance and close process standardization, instituting a centralized close calendar, standardized reporting templates, and role based access controls for consolidation ownership. The nine month timeline encompassed configuration, testing, user acceptance and cutover activities coordinated across finance teams.
