Challenges
Traditional monolithic manufacturing databases and applications limit speed, scale, and flexibility. The resulting process inefficiencies can reduce throughput and risk system disruptions, costs, and delays. Downtime can delay production, even shutting down the assembly lines at significant cost. In addition, arduous processes for provisioning storage lengthen development cycles and impact time to market.
Results
Rivian unlocks greater speed, scale, and flexibility by containerizing applications. With Portworx as its data services platform, Rivian accelerates development and achieves operational efficiency, helping increase production. Developers spin up environments in minutes using self-service deployment and with improved visibility into shop machinery status, teams can reconfigure workflows as needed to keep production moving.
