A Beverage Manufacturer

One of the world’s largest beverage manufacturers uses the latest manufacturing and process control technology, like its competitors, to reduce costs while maintaining high quality. With a network that spans miles within each facility, the company links process equipment, computerized management systems, inventory and transportation control systems, and the other elements of its operation.

It is vital to maintain the health and high performance of that complicated network. Even small outages can affect shipments or production, and when a company ships over 100 million containers a year, small interruptions can mean big expenses. In addition, collecting and monitoring information about all of its business processes gives the beverage manufacturer the ability to quickly spot trends and respond to changes in business conditions.

To address the requirements of integrated troubleshooting and in the search for an advanced network analysis tool, the beverage manufacturer chose EtherPeek NX, WildPackets’ award-winning network protocol analyzer, to fulfill its specific requirements.
