Case Study on Stratus ztC Edge Implementation

This case study details the implementation of Stratus zero-touch computing platforms by a large Midstream oil and gas company in the United States. The objective was to address revised TSA/DOT cybersecurity requirements while modernizing infrastructure and improving operational efficiency. The company faced several challenges, including the need to comply with new cybersecurity mandates, modernize aging infrastructure, and manage a dispersed workforce. The Stratus ztC Edge platform was chosen for its interoperability, fault tolerance, and ease of deployment. It enabled the consolidation of workloads, reduced total cost of ownership, and improved data management across multiple sites. The platform's remote management capabilities also addressed workforce challenges by allowing younger professionals to manage systems efficiently. The case study highlights the benefits of the Stratus ztC Edge, including significant cost savings estimated at $50-60K per site over five years, and its role in enhancing cybersecurity compliance and operational reliability.
