Case Study: Esri achieves real-time, highly scalable GIS processing with Mesosphere Enterprise DC/OS

Esri Builds Real-Time GIS Service Using Mesosphere Enterprise DC/OS

Esri, a world leader in geographic information system (GIS) technology used by more than 350,000 organizations to create location-based insights, faced growing customer demand for IoT and data-driven applications that exceeded the performance and scalability of its on‑premises Real‑Time GIS solution. To support high-velocity, high-volume data from sensors, vehicles, social feeds and more, Esri needed a more scalable, cloud‑ready platform.

Esri built a new managed service on Mesosphere Enterprise DC/OS (Apache Mesos‑based), combining ArcGIS with real‑time and big‑data tools like Kafka, Spark and Elasticsearch to process millions of events per second. The platform delivers faster, more resilient deployments (clusters in minutes), reduced operational overhead, access to a new class of large-scale customers, and a foundation to move from real‑time to predictive GIS.
