Alistair Group | Transportation | 600 | $150M | Tanzania | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon DynamoDB | Database Management | 2019 | In 2019, Alistair Group implemented Amazon DynamoDB as the primary data store for a new serverless logistics application. Amazon DynamoDB served as the Database underpinning a RESTful API backend designed to manage a subcontractor fleet operating across 14 countries and moving 650,000 tons of cargo per year. The implementation delivered functional modules for load assignment distribution, driver progress reporting, fleet asset tracking, and collection of driver performance metrics. The RESTful API implemented via Amazon API Gateway used custom authorizers, AWS Lambda functions hosted the application logic, and Amazon DynamoDB maintained transactional state, while Amazon DynamoDB streams and AWS Lambda replicated a subset of data to Amazon Elasticsearch Service for full text search and time series analysis. Amazon Cognito provided authentication for administrators, fleet managers and drivers, the user interface was built with Angular for web users, and an Android app plus Amazon SNS provided push notifications to drivers for new load assignments. Onica by Rackspace Technology worked alongside Alistair Group as the implementation partner, developing the business use case in a sprint based, iterative approach and beginning the stack with the API layer rather than a traditional web server. The deployment architecture is serverless and cloud native on Amazon Web Services, aligning operational coverage across fleet operations and dispatch functions and supporting hundreds of trucks and drivers within the companys contractor ecosystem. The outcome was a streamlined, automated operations model where drivers receive assignments and report progress in real time, and operational teams consume richer reporting from replicated data in Amazon Elasticsearch Service. The solution was designed to keep costs low while allowing flexibility to scale up and down without re architecting the platform later, with Amazon DynamoDB as the central Database for transactional workloads. | |

Alistair Group | Transportation | 600 | $150M | Tanzania | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon Lambda | Apps Development | 2019 | In 2019, Alistair Group deployed Amazon Lambda as the core compute layer for a serverless logistics application in the Apps Development category to manage a subcontractor fleet across its East Africa operations. The deployment supports the company that moves 650,000 tons of cargo per year across 14 countries and was scoped to coordinate contractors, drivers, trucks, trailers and load assignments for hundreds of vehicles. Onica by Rackspace Technology worked with Alistair Group to build a proprietary serverless application using a sprint based, iterative approach. The implementation began with Amazon API Gateway hosting a RESTful API and custom authorizers, a frontend implemented in Angular, and an Android driver app for field interaction. Amazon Lambda functions host the application logic for each API call, while Amazon DynamoDB serves as the primary transactional data store. A subset of DynamoDB data is replicated via DynamoDB streams and AWS Lambda to Amazon Elasticsearch Service to enable full text search and analysis of time series data collected from the subcontractor fleet. Amazon Cognito is used to authenticate administrators, fleet managers and drivers, and Amazon SNS is used to send push notifications to drivers for new load assignments. This architecture emphasizes serverless integration patterns, event driven replication, and API centric orchestration. Governance and rollout followed a sprint based development model with Onica providing cloud native development, cloud adoption and migration, and application management and operations capabilities. Operational impacts include centralized dispatch and automated driver assignment workflows, on the go reporting of driver performance metrics, and streamlined operational processes. The solution explicitly kept costs low while allowing flexibility to scale up and scale down without rearchitecting, leveraging Amazon Lambda as the scalable compute foundation. | |

Alistair Group | Transportation | 600 | $150M | Tanzania | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon EC2 | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2019 | In 2019, Alistair Group provisioned Amazon EC2 as part of a broader AWS deployment to support its proprietary logistics application, an implementation categorized under Application Hosting and Computing Services. The EC2 capacity was introduced within an architecture that prioritized serverless components to manage a subcontractor fleet for an East Africa logistics operation that moves 650,000 tons of cargo across 14 countries. Onica by Rackspace Technology led cloud native development and application management, implementing a RESTful API via Amazon API Gateway with Angular delivering the frontend user experience. AWS Lambda hosted the application logic and Amazon DynamoDB served as the primary transactional data store, with Amazon DynamoDB streams and Lambda used to replicate a subset of data into Amazon Elasticsearch Service for full text search and time series analysis. Amazon Cognito provided authentication for administrators, fleet managers and drivers, and SNS was used to deliver push notifications to drivers via an Android app. The implementation operationalized business functions for fleet operations, load assignment, driver reporting and performance monitoring, covering hundreds of trucks and drivers across multiple countries. Onica applied a sprint based iterative approach to develop the use case and build the service, using custom authorizers on the API and event driven replication patterns to support reporting and metrics workflows. Governance emphasized application lifecycle management and cost control, with cloud adoption and migration, application management and operations, and cloud native development services formalized by the SI. The architecture delivered scalability and the ability to scale down when demand required, while streamlining and automating assignment workflows and in field reporting for drivers. | |
