    Scalable infrastructure as a foundation for future growth

  • In partnership with Netrics, a high-performance Edge Cloud infrastructure and a comprehensive Wi-Fi solution were implemented – ensuring maximum availability and security.

Challenge
Solution

Modern logistics is digital and interconnected – and that's exactly what BusinessCom AG was aiming for. As a leading Swiss wholesaler for pet supplies, the company set out to rethink its logistics centres: highly automated, intelligent, and scalable. At the heart of the vision was an advanced high-bay warehouse where robots, drones and smart scanners would work hand in hand. The tricky part: systems like this only work if the technical infrastructure on site is strong enough.

As its technology partner, Netrics therefore designed and deployed a high-performance Edge Cloud infrastructure operated directly on-site. To ensure that the precision scanners also work reliably in every storage area, a stable, comprehensive Wi-Fi solution was implemented in addition. For end-to-end processes from warehouse to back office, BusinessCom also moved its ERP system into the Netrics Private Cloud – seamlessly integrated with the Edge environment. The setup was completed by a modern digital workplace from the Public Cloud.

The result: a continuous logistics flow – orchestrated, monitored, and secured across three cloud environments, perfectly aligned.

  • Why this is exciting for your company too

  • Many organizations face the same challenge: the more data and automation are involved, the higher the demands on the underlying infrastructure. BusinessCom demonstrates how a smart combination of Edge, Private, and Public Cloud delivers exactly the foundation needed – for stable operations, innovation, and stronger logistics.

Automation stands – or falls – with the infrastructure.
