Rehrig Pacific solves an age-old logistics challenge with secure edge AI on Ubuntu Core
Learn why customers trust Rehrig Pacific to deploy edge solutions behind their firewalls
Rehrig Pacific has been at the forefront of logistics innovation for over 100 years, and with the recent evolution of AI technologies, the company saw an opportunity to solve one of the industry’s most long standing challenges – pallet screening.
The process of checking a shipment before it goes out to ensure it has the correct items has traditionally always been manual and time consuming. So Rehrig Pacific set its sights on transforming the outdated practice with a new, AI-powered computer vision solution.
To deploy this new edge product within customer environments and behind customer firewalls, Rehrig Pacific needed to meet the highest levels of security and compliance – which is why it chose Ubuntu Core as its operating system. Purpose-built for embedded use cases, Ubuntu Core enabled Rehrig Pacific to minimize the attack surface for its AI solution. The OS ensures that the edge devices remain secure and maintainable at scale, and helps Rehrig Pacific protect its IP.
“Adopting Ubuntu Core has helped our engineers mature their thinking in how we deliver scalable enterprise products. It’s enabled us to move from an R&D product to a full-scale enterprise solution. And now that we’ve established these pathways, developing our next edge products will be even faster”.
— Robert Martin, Vice President of Technology, Rehrig Pacific
