PROOF OF CONCEPT
(POC)
For companies, CAD virtualization opens up many possibilities for saving time and costs as well as opportunities for improving competitiveness. Are you wondering what added value desktop virtualization offers for your company-specific requirements? But you shy away from direct implementation because you are undecided which selected processes can actually be mapped?
Our recommendation: Proceed step by step! Start with a PoC to create a starting point for the evaluation and continuous improvement of your desktop virtualization. Our experts will be happy to support you in this process.
The PoC shows which advantages desktop virtualization offers. A PoC is basically a feasibility study to prove the feasibility of a project. It is a risk-mitigating measure that can validate the solution concept at a very early stage.
Accordingly, a PoC is recommended before the start of implementation in order to ideally confirm the concept and, if necessary, uncover risks that should be taken into account in the future. Another side effect of PoC is the possibility to learn in advance about the actual benefits and simplifications that the planned solution will bring. The precise insight into the changes in the indicators in relation to the initial form of the system makes it possible to identify and quantify the potential return on investment (ROI) and increase confidence in a reliably verified solution.

Tab 2 Content
Tab 3 Content
After the initial meeting and the inventory of the IT environment as well as the definition of the objectives, the PoC can be implemented on site within 1 week under ideal conditions. This allows you to evaluate initial results cost-effectively and quickly. If you decide for the cloud solution in our secure data center in Bremen, this can be realized within one working day. During the PoC phase, our experts will be at your side.
This is followed by the actual development and implementation of the PoC with timely results for improving the strategy and adapting it to your technical ideas. Here, our experts proceed according to the following pattern:
- Development run-through for core operation with sample data
- First process run-through with sample data
- Connection of external data sources
- Connection of first test consumers
If necessary for testing the PoC, we also carry out initial load tests to enable extrapolation with regard to performance.
Our sample configurations for construction & design e.g.:
the sysGen/Supermicro 4U Super Server
- 2x Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor "Cascade Lake" Gold 6246R, 3.40 GHz, 16-Core, Socket LGA 3647, 35,75MB Cache, 205 Watt (Max Memory Size 1TB, DDR4-2933MHz Memory Speed, 6 Memory Channels, Intel® OptaneTM DC Persistent Memory Supported)
- 2x 240GB Samsung SSD
- 2x 10GBase-T LAN ports via Intel X550 onboard additional network card:o 1x Intel® X540-T2 10GBase-T controller
- 3 years warranty incl. H/W components advance replacement, response time NBD (next working day in case of error message Mon - Fri until 12.00am)
You wish an individual offer for a test configuration
adapted to your business requirements?
Our experts will be happy to provide you with an offer, please contact us!
The next step is to discuss and define the solution architecture. Furthermore, the specification of the necessary infrastructure for the PoC takes place. In doing so, we work closely with your IT and try to use hardware and in-house standards that are already available to you. In addition to determining the technical feasibility, we also review the PoC from a business perspective.
We distinguish between two PoC options here:
Option 1: Setting up the infrastructure in your accounting department on site and integrating it into your IT environment within 1 week.
Option 2: Hosting in our state-of-the-art, secure data center in Bremen within 1 day. This offers many advantages such as saving time, money and effort as well as faster results. However, for existing developed data to be built upon, a prior data transfer is necessary!
The solution architecture consists of these components:

The solution architecture consists of these components:
- Definition of the target structure as well as the application structure (software side)
- Definition of the group of persons
- Identification of the required/available data sources and examination of the connection possibilities
- Identification of the necessary components
- Outline of the (technical) process
- Technology and tool selection
POC'S PROCESS:
1
Try & Buy (4-week trial period)
2
Analysis of your CAD/CAE environment
3
CAD Consulting
4
Pre-installation of the software
5
Virtual machine setup
6
Active Directory configurations
7
Creation of VDI workstations
PROFESSIONAL USE:
Although the results of the PoC are already being tested and used during development, the actual phase of testing will now follow. Here, we primarily want to prove the business benefits of desktop virtualization. During this phase, changes and improvements will be made. This includes the expansion of further process paths and the extension of core operations and algorithms.
FINAL REVIEW:
The PoC concludes with a joint review meeting at which we compile and evaluate the technical and professional experience. We record the result in a joint final document.
AFTER SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THE POC'S:
If you decide to purchase the virtualization solution after the PoC, you have the enormous advantage that the implementation effort and the onboarding have already taken place. An implementation according to our individual offer is therefore possible without any time delay - without any surprises.
Should you decide not to proceed with virtualization, you will have a detailed and valid record of your current IT infrastructure after the PoC and could gain valuable insights for the implementation of a virtualization project.

WHAT IS CAD SOFTWARE?
CAD (Computer-Aided Design) is the technology for creating designs, constructions and technical drawings.
Manual drafting, construction and drawing are replaced by an automated, computer-aided process.
If you are a designer, draftsman, architect or engineer, you have probably had some experience with 2D or 3D CAD programs such as AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT.
With these widely used and other Autodesk solutions, you can draw blueprints, capture design ideas, visualize concepts using photorealistic renderings, and simulate the behavior of designs under realistic conditions.
