The Challenge

A global leader in connected vehicles and 5G edge technologies needed to modernize legacy infrastructure buckling under growing demand and deployment complexity. With time-to-market and sustainability as strategic imperatives, they needed to scale faster while supporting complex use cases across geographies without compromising performance. The company struggled with rising demand for faster 5G deployments, sustainability goals competing with performance needs, disjointed infrastructure slowing time-to-market, and complex testing across OEMs with limited operational visibility. They recognized the need for comprehensive platform modernization to maintain their competitive position. That's where Encora stepped in.

How We Did It

Encora stepped in with a comprehensive modernization approach designed to improve the scalability, reliability, and performance of their edge computing platform.

Cloud-Native Platform to Scale with Demand

Conducted strategic assessment with market analysis and competitive benchmarking. Rebuilt orchestration layer using composable, container-based architecture for global deployment readiness.

Secure, High-Performance Data Operations

Developed intelligent data pipelines for massive edge data volumes across distributed nodes. Enhanced security with hardened configurations and proactive threat mitigation.

Scalable Testing & AI-Driven Operations

Scaled testing environments and streamlined deployment workflows for faster development cycles. Deployed AI assistant to enhance network management and accelerate issue resolution.

The Result: From Regional Provider to 5G Infrastructure Backbone

Encora helped transform the company from a regional edge provider into a 5G infrastructure backbone powering connected vehicle innovation across North America and Europe.
