In Episode 189 of the IoT Use Case Podcast, host Ing. Madeleine Mickeleit welcomes Cummins and Portainer.io to discuss how container technology is transforming the automotive and industrial IoT landscape.
Joining the episode are Carlton Bale, Director of Software at Cummins, Dr. Martin Brown, Software Architect at Cummins, and Neil Cresswell, CEO and Co-Founder of Portainer.io.

Together they explore how Cummins uses containerized architectures and edge orchestration to modernize software delivery for complex, highly configurable vehicles — paving the way toward the Software Defined Vehicle. The discussion covers practical lessons from real deployments, industry collaboration, and what this evolution means for OEMs and fleet operators worldwide.

Episode Summary

Updating vehicle software once required costly workshop visits and manual intervention. Today, Cummins is changing that — using IoT, container technology, and over-the-air (OTA) updates to deliver software securely and efficiently to assets in the field.

In this episode, Cummins explains why its traditional telematics stack could no longer scale across more than 20 OEMs and 35 partner systems, and how a new modular software architecture built on OCI containers is helping unify these fragmented environments. With Portainer.io as a technology partner, Cummins explored how to orchestrate containers remotely, manage limited bandwidth and security requirements, and scale deployments from pilot projects to fleets of hundreds of thousands of devices.

The conversation also dives into open-source collaboration through Eclipse SDV and COVESA, standardization efforts, and what the future of the Software Defined Vehicle could look like.
👉 Tune in to learn how Cummins and Portainer are shaping the next generation of connected, software-driven vehicles — and what other industries can take away from it.
