The best part is that we reduced the end-to-end maintenance efforts, resources, and costs by switching to modern platforms.
Our client is a leading logistics service provider in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic area offering LTL, truckload, brokerage, warehousing, and other allied services. They manage logistics transport applications to facilitate live tracking of trucks.
The client wanted to modernize their transport application from on-premises infrastructure to cloud platforms. They faced scalability and deployment issues in their infrastructure because of the third-party vendor’s intervention in their application.

The user traffic fluctuates during peak hours, which in turn requires periodical performance tuning. So, they were looking for a dynamic environment with auto-scaling capabilities.
The client reached out to the zeb team
Our solution to the client with the Application Modernization service
zeb team analyzed the client’s legacy transport application architecture. Then, we proposed the best possible microservice infrastructure and implemented it with best practices.
- zeb recommended the client to migrate their transport application from monolithic infrastructure to microservices and cloud platforms.
- The client managed their user, driver, routes, and other transportation data sets on their on-premises database. We migrated their on-premises database to non-relational Mongo DB without any data leaks.
- Our team modernized the client’s transport application infrastructure from on-prem to microservice-based Kubernetes. This microservice architecture addressed their auto-scaling requirements based on the user traffic.
- To ease the app upgrades, our DevOps experts rendered Azure DevOps solutions for streamlined version control with CI/CD pipeline.
- We provided the terraform template to release the infrastructure as a code approach. This helped the client re-deploy the application infrastructure within minutes to ensure a live tracking experience without any downtime.
- We have integrated AWS CloudWatch to monitor and offer insights about the application to the admin user groups. This allowed our client 24/7 proactive upgrades and reduced application downtime.
- Our developers established the real-time socket connection between trucks and servers to enable live tracking. By integrating the socket connection with the map dashboard, the users could locate the trucks in interactive satellite maps.
- Further, we have recommended the best security practices and reduced the infrastructure management efforts.
- Right from the client’s data platforms to application infrastructure, we have modernized everything to suit their userbase, traffic, and loads.
Business gains for the client
- Our client experienced a 65% reduction in efforts and maintenance cost of the transport application.
- With the cloud-native infrastructure, the client had flexible scalability and pricing model.
- The application delivered an intuitive user experience with cutting-edge cloud services on its backbone.
