Case Study: UPS streamlines package tracking and delivery with Red Hat and DevOps

UPS streamlines package delivery with DevOps and Red Hat

United Parcel Service (UPS), a global logistics leader, needed a faster way to deliver real-time package data and better support operations planning, staffing, and customer tracking. Working with Persistent Systems and Red Hat technologies such as Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Red Hat JBoss Fuse, UPS set out to replace slower, traditional development methods with a more agile, cloud-based approach.

Persistent Systems helped UPS build a container-based private cloud platform and adopt DevOps, enabling teams to develop and deploy microservices more quickly and collaborate more effectively. The result was a dramatic reduction in development cycle time from over a year to just months or weeks, plus improved scalability and availability to handle peak holiday demand and better real-time visibility for internal teams and customers.
