What You Can Expect from the Success Story

Krones AG is one of the leading system suppliers for the beverage and liquid food industry, providing international customers with tailored systems that cover every process step along the entire production life cycle.

To deliver products tailored to its customers' highly customised machines, Krones relies on its shop system from SAP to access extensive BOM data. The challenge was to make these large data sets available across all involved systems while ensuring high query performance and retaining flexibility for future requirements.
