summary
A global shipping customer runs a 600-vessel fleet that visits 340 ports and moves about one million refrigerated containers and wants to cut spoilage and support local apps. The solution deploys a 4G packet core on every vessel as Kubernetes clusters, aggregates GEO/MEO/LEO (including Starlink) for resilient connectivity, and uses edge orchestration and Edge Sync (SaaS or managed on‑prem) to enable remote updates, predictive maintenance, and large‑scale fleet policy control.
