Case Study: Mediterranean Shipping Company achieves real-time shipment visibility with InterSystems

Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. processes 300,000+ transactions daily in real time with InterSystems

Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), the world's largest container shipping company, faced the challenge of managing immense volumes of data from its global operations. Their existing relational database could not process and validate over 300,000 daily transactions in real time, which prevented them from providing customers with immediate, precise information on freight status. To meet this goal, they turned to the InterSystems data platform.

InterSystems implemented its data platform, which included an embedded, scalable database and an EDI Engine, in just six months. The solution enabled MSC to process data in real time, integrate it into a clear workflow, and provide global customers with accurate shipment tracking. The platform also quickly detects and localizes data errors from agencies, allowing for immediate correction. As a result, InterSystems empowered MSC to offer customers real-time visibility into their shipments, significantly improving operational efficiency and customer service.
