Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview Nabisco Food Group is the $8 billion international manufacturer of biscuits, snacks, and premium grocery products including Oreo, SnackWell's and Chips Ahoy. Nabisco's bakeries never close, operating seven days per week, 24-hours per day, so performance, system reliability and secure data accessibility are crucial elements of their success. Along with its commitment to DB2, Nabisco is standardizing on TCP/IP as its enterprise networking standard to replace its current SNA network infrastructure, and will soon be deploying Windows NT as its desktop standard. In addition to an AS/400 which operates as the transaction server, each bakery utilizes a Windows NT Server running SQL Server 6.5, which manages a 20 gigabyte data warehouse for decision support.
