OPTIMIZING CRUISE SHIP API PERFORMANCE THROUGH EDGE COMPUTING: AN AGILE IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
Keywords:
Maritime Edge Computing, API Optimization, Cruise Ship Technology, Distributed Computing Architecture, Agile ImplementationAbstract
This article comprehensively analyzes edge computing implementation strategies for optimizing API performance in cruise ship environments. The article explores how edge computing technologies can enhance the scalability and performance of cloud-based APIs in maritime settings while incorporating agile development principles. The article examines the unique challenges of shipboard connectivity and presents solutions through distributed computing architectures. The article demonstrates how edge computing can significantly reduce latency, optimize bandwidth usage, and improve overall service quality for passengers and crew members. The article also addresses the technical considerations of implementing edge computing in maritime environments, including hardware requirements, environmental factors, and integration with existing ship systems. The findings reveal that edge computing, when properly implemented with agile methodologies, can substantially improve operational efficiency and passenger experience while providing meaningful return on investment for cruise operators.
