Retail | 42000 | $10.0B | Germany | IBM | IBM Db2 | Database Management | 2001 |
In 2001 C&A Europe deployed IBM Db2 as part of a mainframe consolidation on IBM z Systems to centralize Database Management for SAP and analytics workloads. The IBM Db2 implementation was co-located with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on z Systems and executed with support from SVA System Vertrieb Alexander, aligning the database tier with SAP Business Warehouse and SAP business applications.
Implementation scope focused on centralizing database and application servers to remove cross-platform network bottlenecks that had slowed operational workflows. IBM Db2 supported transactional ERP data, data warehousing workloads for SAP Business Warehouse, and served as the core database for reporting and analytics, while backup and recovery processes were integrated into the same platform using IBM Spectrum Protect.
Integrations tied IBM Db2 to SAP Business Warehouse and the SAP application landscape using mainframe native connectivity and HiperSockets to provide low latency, high throughput data exchange between database and application layers. The deployment operated alongside open source services running on SLES on z Systems, including the Piwik web analytics platform and in-house version control tools, enabling closely integrated omnichannel analytics and development workflows.
C&A Europe executed the migration from a UNIX environment based on IBM Power Systems running the IBM AIX operating system to a consolidated z Systems topology, leveraging Integrated Facility for Linux processors to optimize Linux workloads and reduce operating costs. Governance emphasized platform centralization and continuity of mission critical SAP workflows, and the consolidated IBM Db2 architecture delivered improved availability for backups, accelerated analytics, and increased staff productivity through lower latency data exchange.

Retail | 42000 | $10.0B | Germany | IBM | IBM Z Systems | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2012 |
In 2012, C&A Europe implemented IBM Z Systems as its core Application Hosting and Computing Services platform, running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on z Systems to host mission critical SAP business applications and analytics. The IBM Z Systems implementation consolidated database and application workloads onto the central mainframe using Integrated Facility for Linux processors to optimize Linux capacity and to support IBM DB2 for z/OS with HiperSockets low latency connectivity.
The deployment encompassed SAP business applications including SAP Business Warehouse, business analytics workloads, central backup and recovery services, and developer tooling. IBM Spectrum Protect based backup and recovery runs on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on z Systems, while open source components such as the Piwik web analytics platform and in house version control tools run on the same SLES on z Systems instance. The environment was configured to provide high availability and low latency data exchange between applications and the DB2 for z/OS database to support omnichannel sales, financial and reporting processes.
C&A worked with SUSE and the SI partner SVA System Vertrieb Alexander to plan and execute the consolidation, and the solution design emphasized consolidation of database and application servers on the central mainframe to simplify operational workflows. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on z Systems provided application portability, enabling C&A to move selected Linux workloads such as Nagios to x86 where appropriate to optimize resource efficiency. The implementation scope covered retail operational functions supporting stores, e commerce channels and central reporting across Germany and Belgium.
As reported, running IBM Z Systems with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server improved application performance for data intensive workflows, increased staff productivity, and delivered higher availability and reliability for mission critical retail processes. The use of IFL processors on IBM Z Systems was positioned as a cost effective processing capacity strategy to reduce operating costs while maintaining mainframe grade stability and continuous operation.
