Brewhouse Riegele Continuous Operation and IT Automation for a Modern Brewery

With Libelle DataMasking you can anonymize personal and sensitive data and work with it sensibly – whether in SAP or other environments. Your non-production systems are filled with realistic-looking and GDPR-compliant data.

Introduction

Brewhaus Riegele relies on modern IT to secure the SAP systems, while at the same time meeting the needs of a regional producer. The brewhouse stands for a respectful approach to nature, environmentally conscious production with predominantly regional raw materials, cultivation of the pubculture with its own beer garden in the heart of Augsburg, and a just-in-timedelivery promise. The IT must ensure an SAP ECC environment and all economic processes from daily deliveries to international and regional customers – as disruption-free and automated as possible.

Challenge

Small and medium-sized enterprises usually do not have a large IT department. The services, including data security and high availability, must be delivered by the IT solutions as automatically as possible and without interruption. For SAP users, a multi-level server architecture and up-to-date patch management are among the minimum requirements. Disruptions to brewery operations due to IT system failures or human error cannot be afforded by Brewhouse Riegele if it wants to keep its just-in-time delivery promise. For the same reason, standard IT processes must run as automatically as possible. Manual intervention or individual adaptation of templates for patches, updates and other regular tasks must be reduced to a minimum, especially in such a compact IT environment.

Solution

To ensure that all SAP processes – from purchasing and ordering to invoicing and empties handling – run smoothly, the Brewhaus Riegele relies on asynchronous mirroring with LibelleBusinessShadow®. The complete solution stands for continuous backup and the shortest possible recovery times for databases and applications.

Riegele is impressed: “Libelle‘s solutions are powerful tools for an SAP environment.”
