UPS, a global leader in logistics, wanted to optimize package operations and delivery using a new application platform, called the Center Inside Planning and Execution System (CIPE). In addition, the company wanted to adopt a more agile, collaborative DevOps approach—and technology that would support both CIPE’s new capabilities and this new work method. “We needed to move from our old technologies to the cloud, to make better decisions using real-time, big data analytics,” said Rich West, Senior Application Development Manager at UPS.
