As the digital wave sweeps through, a company’s IT preparedness directly determines the height of its business competitiveness; therefore, no matter the size or industry, companies cannot remain aloof. Responding to this trend, eASPNet has specifically developed the GWStack all-in-one solution. This solution includes services like full cabinet output, 24/7 real-time technical support and monitoring, and offers diverse pricing options such as leasing, lease-to-buy, and outright purchase. This allows companies to set up private or hybrid clouds in the most economical and secure manner.
In recent years, the application cases of GWStack have been continuously increasing, especially in traditional industries where IT manpower and skills are relatively lacking, highlighting its value even more. One of the most renowned paper container manufacturers in Taiwan, famous for producing cup lids, meal boxes, and paper cups, has become a representative success story for eASPNet. This manufacturer supplies paper container products to many well-known fast-food and convenience store chains in Taiwan. Due to the high quality of its products, many of its unique designs are also exported internationally.
On-Site IT Check, Providing Comprehensive Improvement Solutions
eASPNet is committed to providing customers with the highest quality service, attentively addressing each client’s needs from initial consultation and planning to backend technical support services, helping customers easily tackle various challenges. This manufacturer, lacking professional IT personnel, sought assistance from eASPNet.
Initially, the issue lay in the need to back up a database within a virtual machine (VM), but it faced space limitations. Further investigation revealed that the backup and ERP system shared the same VM, causing space constraints and affecting the VM’s stability. eASPNet recommended relocating the backup space to resolve this issue.
However, an on-site inspection revealed other areas needing improvement. For instance, a single physical machine supported the virtual architecture, lacking high availability mechanisms and posing a high risk of simultaneous critical system outages if the hardware failed. In terms of network architecture, all client traffic converged into one switch before entering the firewall, lacking a core switch to manage bandwidth, leading to congestion. Additionally, the firewall was outdated and could not meet actual performance needs.
Adopting GWStack Lease-to-Buy Solution to Meet Future 3-5 Year Operational Needs
To address this manufacturer’s IT environment adjustments, eASPNet provided the GWStack all-in-one solution, including servers, switches, storage equipment, virtualization platforms, and backup and recovery software licenses. They also planned to set up a NAS device for backup and file sharing services. eASPNet assisted in converting all physical machines into virtual machines, further enhancing the flexibility and performance of the IT environment.
Notably, the manufacturer chose the lease-to-buy option to avoid a high one-time cost. Due to the lack of professional IT personnel, they relied on eASPNet’s 24/7 technical support service. This deployment significantly improved system and network responsiveness, making the backup mechanism more robust, and it can stably meet the IT operational needs for the next 3–5 years.
Looking ahead, as major manufacturers in the industry adopt AI technologies for defect detection, the demand for such technologies will continue to grow. To meet this trend, eASPNet will actively introduce MDR services to enhance the cybersecurity defenses of manufacturers, ensuring the stability and reliability of business operations.
