Chicago-based logistics firm Synergy Logistics has announced the release of its hybrid warehouse management system (WMS), ORCA, at the MODEX supply chain trade show in Atlanta. The company's new WMS is designed to keep distribution centers running during costly internet and cloud outages, addressing a critical issue that can severely hamper operations. With ORCA, warehouses and fulfillment centers can ensure continuous operation even amid full connectivity losses, which can cost operators up to $100,000 per hour due to downtime.
The risk associated with cloud downtime is no longer hypothetical; it's an existential threat,
The introduction of ORCA marks a significant shift in the industry, offering warehouses and fulfillment centers a robust solution to ensure continuous operation during cloud connectivity losses.
