Challenge

Master of thousands of products and their product information

The former generation KAISER website was based upon a CMS system which also hosted most of the information. The current PIM system was no longer capable of handling the increasing requirements of the trade channels. 
The new generation was thus to be built upon a new concept which influenced most parts of the software architecture. It was the goal to find a modern, flexible and safe yet easy-to-handle PIM system that can import the data from the former and current 
merchandise management system. It must be possible to complete the data from other systems and, if necessary, replenish it individually. Further requirements included the operation of different languages and the uncomplicated connection with processing systems such as Web and
 Databased Publishing.

Pimcore data platform specifically adapted to the KAISER requiremts. Among other tasks to be fulfilled, the project included the migration and 
harmonization of some 500 core attributes as well as the import of approximately 15.000 data packages.
