Modern Apps are Essential for Digital TransformationSpeed—Choice—Security

Across industries, IT organizations are turning to Docker — the only enterprise-ready container platform providing a consistent desktop-to-cloud experience and a central point of collaboration across dev and ops to build, share and run modern applications. Based on industry standards, Docker Enterprise is the easiest way to use containers and Kubernetes at scale, delivering the fastest time to production for modern applications across any multi- and hybrid-cloud environment.

Over 800 enterprises rely on Docker Enterprise to bring speed, choice and security to their entire application lifecycle, enabling the rapid development and progressive delivery of modern applications, leveraging the tools and knowledge they have in place today. This means improved developer productivity, increased release frequency and a secure pipeline to Kubernetes environments anywhere.

Finnish Railways Modernizes Key Transportation Applications

Learn more about Finnish Railway’s Docker Enterprise deployment

“ What we’ve accomplished this year with Docker Enterprise is a lot in a really tight timeframe. Time to market is remarkably better now.” MARKUS NISKANEN INTEGRATION MANAGER VR GROUP

Finnish Railways provides 82 million passenger train rides and transports 36 million tons of goods per year. High operating costs, long deployment times, and poor performance of critical business applications drove an urgent need for modernization of legacy applications and development processes.

Goals

• Modernize critical business applications running on legacy systems

• Create a consistent application delivery pipeline to reduce costs and improve visibility into all applications

• Reduce IT costs

Finnish Railways creates common platform

Partnering with Accenture, Finnish Railways used Docker Enterprise to create a common application platform for new microservices and modernizing existing applications. The team rewrote the old reservation system and the legacy commuter service application using microservices and migrated from their legacy platforms to Docker Enterprise. Now they use Docker Enterprise for all applications—from non-production development workloads to legacy applications and new microservices.

Outcomes

• Achieved 50% IT cost savings since migrating to Docker Enterprise

• Attained better visibility into all applications with centralized logging and monitoring

• Provide a consistent applications delivery pipeline that is leveraged across all applications and all of Finnish Railways’ vendors

Alm. Brand Streamlines Operations by Stabilizing Legacy Applications

Learn more about Alm Brand’s Docker Enterprise deployment

“ Docker Enterprise has reduced the number of support tickets on our legacy WebLogic applications by 71%. By containerizing these applications, troubleshooting is easier and rebooting is much faster.” SUNE KELLER IT ARCHITECT ALM BRAND

Founded in 1792, Alm. Brand is a Danish insurance and banking company headquartered in Copenhagen. Their legacy WebLogic applications disrupted operations and service availability, because when an application crashed, it compromised the entire cluster, making it hard to determine which application caused the problem. In addition, the slow and brittle cluster only allowed the team to deploy one application at a time.

Goals

• Modernize existing WebLogic applications to improve reliability and service availability

• Enhance configuration management to ease maintenance efforts

• Free up administrator time for new initiatives

Alm. Brand creates modernization pipeline

Alm. Brand migrated 39 WebLogic applications to isolated containers on a standardized configuration. The first—and largest—app took only three months to modernize, and established processes that let them modernize legacy apps on the fly. Transitioning traffic gradually from existing clusters to the new Docker Enterprise platform assured smooth migrations.

Outcomes

• Reduced VM configurations by more than 50%

• Eased maintenance and troubleshooting and reduced service interruptions by isolating applications from one another

• Centralized logging and metrics collection by running all applications on the same Docker Enterprise environment Modern apps,

Desigual Transforms the In-Store Customer Experience

Learn more about Desigual’s Docker Enterprise deployment

“ We needed an enterprise container platform that could support both our legacy VMware infrastructure with .NET and Java applications, let us run Swarm and Kubernetes, and give us the ability to run in the cloud. Docker Enterprise was the only solution that met all of our criteria.” MATHIAS KRIEGEL CLOUD ARCHITECT AND IT OPERATIONS LEAD DESIGUAL

Desigual is a global clothing brand headquartered in Spain serving 72 countries with 1000+ new designs each season. For this big retailer, in-store sales suffered due to limited information about product availability or alternatives.
