Industries / Logistics & Transportation

Infrastructure for logistics and transportation.

Carriers, ports, DCs and fleets: live data from vehicles, warehouses and partners. Vonahost runs the platforms that receive it, process it and keep cargo moving.

The sector

A shipment is a stream of events: scans, positions, gates and deliveries. Your infrastructure has to process every one of them on time.

We host tracking and WMS, connect partners and sites, and turn data into routes and forecasts.

At the port

Containers planned before the crane moves.

The vessel and the quay share container data with a Vonahost server. The Vonahost AI plans the berth and the stacking order, and reroutes any container that does not match its documents.

Servers that plan every container move before the crane starts.

Challenges

What the sector requires.

  • Real-time visibility

    Customers expect real-time cargo visibility.

    01

  • Many partners

    Carriers, customs, shippers, marketplaces: mismatched formats.

    02

  • Remote sites

    Yards, ports and depots often have limited connectivity.

    03

  • Thin margins

    Route and capacity decisions need fast, accurate data.

How we operate

From vehicle to dashboard.

Field connected, platform hosted, partners integrated. One version of the truth.

  • Tracking platformsIngestion of GPS, telematics and scan events at scale.
  • Warehouse systemsWMS and yard systems on dedicated or cloud servers.
  • Partner integrationAPIs and EDI flows with carriers, customs and customers.
  • Site connectivityFiber, 4G and 5G for yards, depots and terminals.
  • Route intelligenceModels for route planning, ETA prediction and capacity.

Compliance

Requirements we design for.

Compliance is shared: we provide infrastructure controls and documentation, you own your obligations.

  • Customs and trade data

    Secure shipment and customs data to partners and regulators.

    01

  • Data retention

    Event and document history kept per contract and regulation.

    02

  • Privacy

    Driver and customer data: CCPA, GDPR, LGPD as applicable.

    03

Engagement

How a project runs.

01

Assessment

Workloads, data, rules and vendors reviewed with your team.

02

Architecture

Design, sites, capacity and monthly cost, in writing.

03

Deployment

Environments built, data migrated, every part tested.

04

Operation

Monitoring, updates, backups, capacity: by contract.

Questions

Common questions.

Can you ingest data from our trackers?

Yes. We ingest GPS and telematics data from standard devices and platforms, and process it on your infrastructure.

Do you connect remote yards and ports?

Yes. We design fiber, 4G and 5G links for sites without reliable connectivity.

Can partners connect to our systems?

Yes, through secured APIs, VPN or EDI.
