Solution

Vinli uses Databricks Data + AI Platform to support AI-powered fleet intelligence, risk surfacing, and workflow automation. The implementation replaced a legacy state where fleet operators needed a scalable way to unify OEM, telematics, and driver data so new AI products could launch faster without heavy infrastructure overhead. Oem data and telematics feeds move through Lakeflow Jobs and land in Delta Lake, giving teams one trusted data foundation. Unity Catalog governs access, lineage, and compliance across sensitive datasets. MLflow, Model Serving, and Agent Bricks operationalize models, agents, and analytics that deliver fleet risk alerts and cost-saving recommendations.

Data flow

Oem data and telematics feeds land on a shared platform, pipeline services clean and standardize them, governance controls enforce trusted access, and AI, model-serving, and analytics services deliver fleet risk alerts and cost-saving recommendations.
