Claranet reduces recurring
event alarms by 46%
www.ibmserviceengage.com/it-operations-management

Leveraging Event Analytics to improve operational agility
and maximize operational efficiency
The need
A growing customer base generates increasing numbers
of alarms and events in Claranet’s managed services
provider infrastructure, requiring the company to rapidly
identify and resolve issues before they have an impact on
their customers’ business-critical infrastructure.
The solution
Claranet utilizes the event analytics capabilities of IBM
Netcool Operations Insight software enabling discovery of
event patterns and nonrandom seasonal behaviors,
facilitating proactive and automated responses to
recurring situations.
The benefit
The company identifies and ranks events by their
seasonal nature, reducing events and alarms by 46
percent.
“We’ve reduced re-occurring events
that previously may have delayed us
from being able to address our
customers’ more important business
critical issues,”
“We’re definitely operating at a higher
level of efficiency.”
Jason Taylor, senior systems engineer for Claranet.

What if a service disruption could become a thing of the past?
• IBM Tivoli® Monitoring
• IBM Tivoli Netcool®/OMNIbus
• IBM Tivoli Netcool/Impact
• IBM Tivoli Network Manager
• IBM Global Technology Services – Integrated Technology Services
• Global Alliance Solutions
“With the new software solution, we now receive, on average,
only 22 critical events and 100 major events per week, a nearly
98 percent reduction from before. This permits our network
operations team to focus on the events that matter and better
utilize our first- and second-line staff to reduce costs.”
—Rui Ferreira, service director, ZON Multimedia SGPS SA
With the largest fiber-based network in
Portugal and digital satellite platform, ZON
Multimedia SGPS SA (ZON Multimedia)
needed to ensure seamless, high-quality
network services to more than 1.6 million
subscribers and more than three million homes
in Portugal. Averaging more than 1,000 critical
alarms and 8,000 major alarms per week with
more than 10 different management platforms
to monitor its networks, the company’s IT staff
found it nearly impossible to focus on service
quality.
The Opportunity
ZON Multimedia SGPS SA
What Makes it Smarter
Real Business Results
– Reduced the number of events per week by 98 percent by automating event detection and
resolution and prioritizing event response according to business impact
– Lowered operational and capital expenses with a single dashboard to manage the network to
provide consistently high levels of customer service
– Improved service availability with the ability to proactively plan and schedule maintenance to
maintain signal and distribution quality
Solution Components
ZON Multimedia achieves a 98 percent reduction in network issues by automatically detecting deviations in its infrastructure and
resolving the problems before they become critical customer issues.
Media and Entertainment | Intelligent Network Management | Portugal
Whether it’s a TV program, the Internet or mobile phone service, there is nothing more
frustrating to a customer than service disruptions, which in turn create greater potential for
customers to defect from a service provider. Using an innovative network management
solution, ZON Multimedia reached a new level in preventing customer-facing service
disruptions. Its IT staff can address and resolve issues before any part of the network
infrastructure actually fails by automating the detection of any deviation from normal
operations that could indicate underlying problems with the infrastructure. The solution
pinpoints root causes of events and prioritizes responses according to business impact.
With this new level of capability, the staff can focus on the most critical problems and
automate the isolation and resolution of those problems before they affect the signal and
distribution quality for its cable, satellite, Internet and mobile customers.

Benefits:
• Swisscom has moved from reactive
to proactive network support and asset
management, helping the company
deliver 99.8 percent network reliability
to customers.
Business Need:
Swisscom Hospitality Services needed to proactively monitor,
manage and maintain complex, diverse network environments to
meet hotelier customers’ demands for near 100 percent guest
service reliability.
Swisscom Hospitality delivers near 100 percent reliability
A family of IBM Tivoli products helps the company proactively manage hotel networks
Solution:
After replacing a proprietary network management system with
a family of IBM® Tivoli® software, Swisscom provides
customers with visibility into network reliability and service level
agreement compliance.
IBM Tivoli Netcool®/OMNIbus software provides the company with near-real-
time event-management capabilities and visibility into its two network operations
centers. Swisscom customers also use the tool to understand, at a glance,
network performance regionally or by site. IBM Tivoli Network Manager and IBM
Tivoli Monitoring software enable Swisscom to see the status of each of the
several hundred devices in each network and to diagram critical relationships
between devices. IBM Asset Management for IT (now IBM SmartCloud® Control
Desk) software allows Swisscom to manage the full lifecycle of all devices
installed in hotel environments and help customers plan for asset maintenance
and upgrades.
Software:
• Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus, Tivoli

Tivoli Monitoring, IBM SmartCloud
Control Desk
“Our hotel IT directors used to be blind to what was
going on with their network. With Tivoli they now see
the issues that are being dealt with by Swisscom,
potential issues emerging and past issues,” says Mr.
Missen. “I get a breakdown every month of all the
proactive and reactive items that have come up in
every hotel for every Alert Care module, and there is
nothing on the reactive side that concerns me at all.
We are looking at one to two reactive calls per
month per site, if that. When it comes to being
proactive and continuously improving our service
delivery, Alert Care is critical, and Tivoli is very much
key to that initiative.”

Benefits:
• Reduced maintenance costs by
USD200,000 by consolidating the
environment onto a standard software
platform
• Saved USD25,000 annually in
human resources costs by increasing
the efficiency and productivity of the IT
department
• Cut overall IT costs while improving
service levels and reducing workload
Business Need:
For Ceska Pojistovna, the IT environment serves as the foundation for
every core business function, from claims processing to human
resources. But the company’s foundation had cracks. After years of
growth, it found itself with a disjointed environment that threatened to
disrupt business operations. It needed a comprehensive IT service
management solution to avoid downtime and performance lags.
Česká Pojištovna gained unprecedented visibility into its
complex IT environment to predict and prevent outages
Solution:
Ceska Pojistovna centralized monitoring and management
across the IT environment, cutting through the complexity to
gain real-time visibility into resource performance and usage.
Automated root cause analysis, problem resolution and alarm
deduplication keep system failures to a minimum. And with
analysis of historical performance trends, the company can
predict fluctuations in resource requirements and perform
more accurate capacity planning, avoiding costly system
failures.
