The Deutsche Bergbau-Museum Bochum (DBM), or the German Mining Museum, is one of the premier locations to show those interested in the history of mining. Over its 100+ years of operation, the DBM has evolved its exhibits to use multimedia players and other digital devices connected to its network. However, the museum’s three-person IT staff faced a series of problems, including a lack of insight into where network outages occurred and no alert notifications. After working alongside P&W Netzwerk, DBM deployed Progress WhatsUp Gold to manage the broad network environment cost-effectively.
