🚚 CloudStride

Company Overview

CloudStride is a Fortune 500 logistics and supply chain company operating in 120 countries. They manage over 50,000 shipments daily, coordinating a network of warehouses, transportation partners, and last-mile delivery services for global enterprises.

The Challenge

CloudStride's legacy data infrastructure couldn't keep pace with modern supply chain demands:

• Delayed visibility — Shipment status updates were 4-6 hours behind reality
• Reactive problem-solving — Issues were discovered after customer complaints, not proactively
• Disconnected IoT data — Sensor data from vehicles and warehouses sat in isolated silos
• Limited predictive capability — Unable to forecast delays or optimize routes in real time

The Solution

CloudStride deployed Datorth's streaming platform to create a real-time operational intelligence layer:

Real-time Event Streaming

• Ingested 500,000+ IoT events per second from GPS trackers, temperature sensors, and warehouse systems
• Built unified event streams consolidating data from 200+ carrier integrations
• Deployed edge processing for latency-sensitive decisions at distribution centers

Streaming Analytics Engine

• Implemented real-time anomaly detection for route deviations and delays
• Built predictive ETA models with 94% accuracy within 15-minute windows
• Created dynamic dashboards updating every 100 milliseconds

Automated Response System

• Deployed event-driven automation for proactive customer notifications
• Integrated with routing systems for real-time optimization
• Built self-healing workflows for common operational issues

Results

Operational Improvements

• Sub-second visibility — From 4-6 hour delays to real-time tracking
• 73% reduction in customer service escalations
• 28% improvement in on-time delivery rates
• $23M annual savings through route optimization

Technical Achievements

• 500K+ events/sec sustained ingestion rate
• < 100ms end-to-end processing latency
• 99.95% streaming platform availability
• 200+ integrations unified into single event fabric

Customer Testimonial

"Datorth gave us the real-time visibility we needed to transform from reactive to proactive operations. We now anticipate problems before they impact customers, and that's changed everything about how we compete."

— Marcus Chen, VP of Digital Operations, CloudStride

Technology Stack
