ANNUAL HANDLING CAPACITY OF TUAS PORT MEASURED IN TWENTY- FOOT EQUIVALENT UNITS
This approach sees interconnected systems , devices and processes exchange real-time , event-based information such as vessel arrivals , container movements and equipment status changes through an interconnected web of event brokers .
This empowers ports to optimise their resource allocation , make informed decisions ahead of time and effectively streamline workflows – ultimately boosting overall productivity and effectiveness across operational processes .
Tuas is a port that never sleeps , with the world ’ s largest fleet of more than 200 AGVs transporting containers within the port 24 hours a day , seven days a week . Regular transmission of instructions to each AGV is crucial , therefore , for port operations to run smoothly . This is achieved through the adoption of Solace PubSub + to provide timely and reliable event delivery at scale .
“ By harnessing the power of EDA , Tuas Port gains the ability to process vital data as events unfold , facilitating timely and informed decision-making ,” says Leung .
“ Acting as a resilient shock absorber , EDA ensures the seamless flow of information , guaranteeing in-order delivery of data , even during temporary disconnections or message flow surges .
“ Unlike traditional request-response systems , EDA empowers Tuas Port with real-time data processing and instant communication capabilities , which ensures uninterrupted operations and dependable communication channels , bolstering overall efficiency .
“ For example , with port operations spanning various hybrid environments , devices and applications , a holistic and comprehensive event mesh is required to distribute data in real time , ensuring each one can perform effectively .”
PSA expects to more than double the AGV fleet as Tuas Port evolves throughout subsequent development phases . The impact of EDA is set to continue reshaping port operations , setting a new standard for efficiency , adaptability and customer satisfaction . supplychaindigital . com 73
