Case Study: Largest Beverage Branding Company achieves future growth with Ensono

Global beverage brand partners with Ensono to ensure future growth

The Largest Beverage Branding Company, one of the world’s biggest beverage brands, faced growing pressure to modernize its aging IBM Power7 environment used for centralized inventory management and financial reporting across thousands of retail locations. With a global 24/7 operation and no easy downtime window, the company turned to Ensono to avoid disruption while preparing for future demand.

Ensono implemented a refreshed IBM Power9 hardware platform and added a new DevTest environment for more rigorous pre-production stress testing. By staggering the migration to the quietest periods, Ensono completed the move in six months and before the holiday season, cutting batch job times by up to 40%, reducing CPU utilization by up to 20%, and enabling testing at scale for 10,000 stores.
