Not only are we in state of constant disruption, but disruptions are here to stay. The cause of disruption may change; yesterday it may have been global health, today it may be political unrest, while tomorrow it may be trade related. Issues like inflation, material shortages, high performance pressures from customers, and capacity constraints will never be challenges businesses can overcome on their own – at least not complex or global businesses. It is an ecosystem problem, as issues can originate beyond the scope of one’s own internal network of factories, warehouses, and distribution centers.

Supply chain risk management has never been more important—especially in industries where regulations are everchanging and sustainability is top of mind. The ability to effectively identify, track and mitigate risk is now becoming a huge competitive advantage for the world’s leading brands. A sufficient level of insight was once nearly impossible for companies to achieve using traditional methods of managing supply chain risk, but as you’ll learn from the example of Clariant, organizations can now successfully integrate technology into the process to better map, assess and mitigate global threats.

Before COVID-19, global supply chains ticked a lot of boxes: lower labor and operating costs, wider product ranges and greater reach to new markets. But the vulnerabilities and visible failures of global supply chains during COVID-19 were there for all to see. Lead times expanded exponentially. Manufacturing capacity stalled. Ports became congested. Transportation ground to a halt. Excessive reliance on one location or one supplier caused a domino effect of expensive downtime along the line.

The climate crisis is one of the most pressing risks to global health: [1] rising temperatures are resulting in an increase in hospital admissions and heat-related deaths; extreme weather events such as flooding and droughts are disrupting food systems, displacing people, and undermining access to healthcare; and changing patterns of water-borne and vector-borne diseases are threatening decades of progress in infectious disease control.[2] Climate change is also exacerbating the incidence of many non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular and respiratory illnesses, through increased air pollution, extreme heat, and other factors.[

In architecting the ETERNUS DSP series the fundamental goal was to provide customers the ability to autonomously adapt and compose the infrastructure to precise application needs, via the unique ability to concurrently and seamlessly manage heterogeneous hardware and media, present or future, unlike any other storage system in the market. We enable customers the ability to “live” change the system in response to both failures, and more importantly, events that improve the applications that ETERNUS DSP series is supporting. Enterprise storage software must strike a balance between delivering availability, performance and scalability along with data agility and developer velocity. This white paper describes the choices, advantages and trade-offs we made in delivering the attributes of Enterprise Storage while revolutionizing the ability to scale, manage and change the system.

Green hydrogen, made from renewable electricity, can be used as part of a sustainable energy system to provide grid balancing services and to decarbonise a wide range of 'hard to reach' end uses. Once such end-use is the long-haul, heavy-duty trucking sector, where hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are able to provide the long range and fast refuelling required by end users. The deployment of hydrogen trucking must start now and ramp-up quickly if the ambitious emissions reductions targets of net-zero by 2050 are to be achieved. This will allow the sector to scale-up green hydrogen and truck production volumes, and cost reductions to be realised
