Solution
ACERTUS modernized its logistics architecture around Confluent Cloud and an event-driven microservices model that connects transportation management, title and registration, car haul, and related systems through one shared streaming backbone. The company uses pre-built connectors plus Schema Registry to exchange events with partners and line-of-business applications, while SQL Server and PostgreSQL CDC source connectors, the Snowflake sink connector, and ksqlDB help move, transform, and land data across operational and analytics environments. Stream Lineage gives teams visibility into how data moves through the platform, and Kafka Streams applications running in containers on AWS Fargate extend the real-time workflows. This setup replaced slow reports and manual coordination with instant event handling, which now powers external order integrations, duplicate-VIN checks, customer notifications, and internal AI-assisted decision support.
Data flow
Orders, vehicle, pricing, and title events stream through Confluent Cloud from systems such as SQL Server and PostgreSQL; ksqlDB and connectors transform and route them to partners, operational applications, notifications, and the Snowflake warehouse for analytics and AI-assisted decision support.
