Case Study: PickMe achieves real-time decision-making and accelerated growth with Equinix

Continuous Data Platform Enables Real-Time Decision Making And Supports Continued Growth

PickMe is Sri Lanka’s leading on‑demand transportation company, operating over 20,000 vehicles and serving more than two million passengers and hundreds of corporate clients. As its user base and data volume grew, PickMe faced rising infrastructure and data‑pipeline costs and needed real‑time, actionable insights (including fraud detection and demand forecasting) to improve driver utilization, reduce passenger wait times, and expand into new services.

PickMe deployed Iguazio’s Continuous Data Platform on Platform Equinix, using an interconnection‑first architecture and edge AI to ingest and analyze real‑time data (weather, news, social media, telemetry). The solution consolidated workloads, cut infrastructure overhead, sped time to production, enabled demand heatmaps and real‑time fraud detection, increased driver efficiency and rider satisfaction, and supported faster feature releases and service expansion.
