How The Red Cross of Upper Austria uses Paessler PRTG for its ITThe Red Cross saves lives. To do so, it needs blood. In Upper Austria, this blood is collected, managed, and distributed at the Red Cross Blood Donation Center in Linz. Stephan Federsel is in charge of the IT at The Red Cross of Upper Austria as well as at the center in Linz. In order to detect issues immediately (and prevent potential downtimes and failures), Stephan and his team must be able to keep a constant eye on the availability and performance of the entire IT infrastructure.

Today, water-efficient farming still sounds like pure fiction. After all, agriculture currently consumes 70 percent of our drinking water supplies worldwide. In most cases, irrigation technology is outdated or not adapted to the conditions. Getting quick wins in medical IT with DICOM and HL7In healthcare facilities, IT teams are increasingly being tasked with expanding their monitoring beyond the usual network components ? routers, switches, firewalls, and so on ? to incorporate healthcare devices and systems.

You could avoid being stuck next to ?that guy? on an eight-hour flight. Unfortunately, clairvoyance is not an easy thing to master and when it comes to managing your network, casting the runes, scrying or even rummaging around in chicken entrails by the light of a full moon is unlikely to help. Get alarms from network components in your supervisory and control systemIn OPC UA-based industrial environments, alarms are an important part of industrial processes - and particularly industrial supervisory and control systems (such as SCADA systems or DCS). OPC UA alarms indicate when there are problems in the OT environment, and OT teams use them to plan and organize their work. However, alarms in supervisory and control systems generally focus on OT equipment and industrial processes. But what about the supporting network components that don?t use OPC UA to communicate?
