About The Customer
The Coca-Cola Company, headquartered in downtown Atlanta, is one of the most iconic brands in the world. The company's history begins in 1886 when pharmacist Dr. John S. Pemberton invented a concentrated syrup to be served from a soda fountain. Today, over 1.9 billion Coca-Cola beverages are consumed daily around the globe. The company has managed to balance a commitment to its rich history with a relentless pursuit of innovation around one simple goal: making people happy. Coca-Cola has several hundred users across the organization, from the supply chain group to the data science team, all using Alteryx to glean insights from Coca-Cola data.
The Challenge
Coca-Cola, a global beverage company, has been seeking ways to balance its rich history with a relentless pursuit of innovation. The company has been using Alteryx, a data analytics platform, for various projects including geospatial intelligence, time series forecasting, and predictive modeling. One of the significant challenges was to gain insights from the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine, a touch screen fountain that allows users to create their own mixture of flavors. The company wanted to predict components that would require maintenance and understand the best product mix in different regions of the country.
The Solution
Coca-Cola used Alteryx for various projects including geospatial intelligence, time series forecasting, and predictive modeling. One of the significant applications was with the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine. The company used Alteryx to predict components that would require maintenance and understand the best product mix in different regions of the country. Alteryx was used to mine troves of data from Freestyle machines across the country. Jay, a Coca-Cola employee, was able to collate and summarize historical data and automatically generate and send over 600 personalized reports to restaurant owners using Alteryx.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
