A History of Success ​

Distributed computing environments are nothing new. That doesn’t make them any less complicated. Quite the opposite. Building and maintaining a series of microservices based on containers or virtual machines is going to be challenging. Especially in the context of multi-cloud.

Pegasus works with and advises organizations looking to begin, accelerate or optimize their microservices and cloud journeys. With deep experience across all major public and private cloud providers and years of developing distributed enterprise applications, Pegasus is the enterprise and vendor partner of choice.

Case Study

Transforming IT Landscapes: Rheinhütte Pumpen's Journey to Cloud Independence

Rheinhütte Pumpen, headquartered in Wiesbaden, Germany, has over 160 years of experience in designing and manufacturing specialized pumps for handling corrosive, abrasive, and high-temperature media. Serving industries such as chemicals, mining, renewable energy, and refineries, their products include pumps for sulfuric acid, molten sulfur, and chlorine-alkali electrolysis. Acquired by ITT Inc. in 2019, Rheinhütte Pumpen has expanded ITT’s capabilities in the industrial process sector, particularly in Europe, by leveraging its extensive expertise and diverse pump range

Rheinhütte Pumpen, needed a comprehensive analysis of their IT infrastructure and cloud ecosystem to prepare for a company acquisition and for that reason to decouple from their parent company. There were many legacy systems and home grown applications with no documentation running on their IT systems. Some required both hardware and software updates and upgrades, and became dated and without support. The separation and/or duplication of services, software and hardware were serious security and functionality issues that needed to be taken into consideration during the transition.

The team conducted a high-level analysis, focusing on critical systems like Active Directory, Exchange, SAP, and bespoke applications unique to the business. We conducted an ‘as is’ and ‘to be’ analysis of their systems so that a plan of action could be drawn up :

  • Conduct Asset Discovery
    Identify all hardware, software, applications, databases, and network components that were part of their systems and their dependencies
    Identify dependencies and integration points with other systems
  • Engage in personal interaction with all involved to discover the non-documented and/or visible elements.
  • Identify the expectations and system requirements of the business post-split
  • Hardware and Software Updates and Legacy Systems and Applications
    Identify Outdated Systems, prioritize updates
    Assess Criticality of legacy systems and applications
    The age and update status of software and hardware
  • Assess and understand the complexities involved in decoupling shared services
    Identify services and software duplication across companies
    Assess legal and regulatory compliance requirements for both
  • Assess data management practices, including data storage, data backups, and data retention policies

Pegasus delivered a robust audit and report that clearly articulated where they were and what needed to happen for the transition to occur as seamlessly as possible.

Pegasus team advocated a staged migration and paced modernization strategy. We advised starting by segmenting the network and building new servers for Rheinhütte, followed by migration and validation of shared resources.

Furthermore, Pegasus underscored the importance of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance throughout the migration process. They also brought attention to potential complications related to intellectual property, particularly concerning bespoke applications unique to the organization. Pegasus subsequently implemented the report’s findings and successfully separated the two companies.

Takeways: This case study showcases Pegasus Consultancy Services’ methodical approach in tackling a complex IT infrastructure analysis, whether physical, virtual and their application architecture, demonstrating their ability to understand their dependencies and challenges associated with legacy systems and the separation of intertwined IT services.

Manufacturing Orchestration and Automation for German Pump manufacturer

The client is an international mining company. They were operating a high-profile mining operation in a remote, undeveloped area in Africa with difficult, mountainous terrain. In addition to the challenges of constructing and operating a mine, they had the complications of establishing the required infrastructure, including roads, a port, a railway, and utility delivery.

These large-scale construction projects came with complex administration, including permits and other legal procedures, environmental and ethical oversight, contractual obligations, and more. Juggling multiple projects with overlapping deadlines, priorities, and resources was inundating the teams and their software. In addition, the government of the country where the mine was located was unable to provide a robust management framework for such a large-scale infrastructure project at the time. Compliance management was quickly identified as one of the biggest risks to a successful mining project.
We conducted an in-depth review to discover the main causes for staff being overwhelmed by conflicting information. We discovered that risk mitigation was being managed through a cumbersome combination of manual spreadsheet entry, email relay, and employee memory, resulting in knowledge being frequently lost. Oversight of compliance became less feasible over time. A lack of centralized information or version control led to conflicting truths. We conducted a workflow dependency analysis and produced business process models to illustrate ways in which tasks could be run concurrently versus serially to streamline some operations. We restructured their data for importing to a new platform.

Risk mitigation was at the forefront of our design. We identified that an international team operating in a variety of environments—including often on site with little bandwidth—needed a highly configurable, easy-to-use, web based solution. They needed something bespoke that could work with their specialized software. Our first step was to implement an online version of Clockworx that could facilitate delivery of the compliance management system. This aided in creating business process models that gave the client a clear view of possible workflows. After importing the restructured databases, we configured Clockworx to accommodate all myriad obligations. Our cloud-based workstation and mobile platform included the ability to allow users to work in their own language, record actions assigned to users to provide accountability, and automate escalation of issues up the chain of command. Clockworx also manages project auditing through task alerts, linking project documentation, and recording changes to data entries.
