Using Mesosphere Enterprise DC/OS to Deliver Real-Time Microservices to a Global Fleet of Ships
summary
Royal Caribbean runs the same container platform ship and shore on Mesosphere Enterprise DC/OS, deploying Lagom microservices with Cassandra and Kafka across a fleet of 40 ships to replace the daily printed itineraries that cost $1M per ship per year. Confluent replicator syncs Kafka topics between clusters, Consul gives cross-cluster service discovery, and Jenkins/Marathon handle immutable, canary-style rollouts. A mobile app is live in app stores, and microservices let operators change one page (voyage picker) instantly to handle a hurricane-induced three‑day itinerary shift.
