## Resource

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into Walmart's massive supply chain overhaul, focusing on how the retail giant moved from batch processing to real-time data pipelines. They discuss the technical challenges of integrating 12,000 suppliers into a unified platform, the role of edge computing in store-level inventory tracking, and what other companies can learn from Walmart's approach to balancing cost and speed. The conversation also touches on the cultural shift required to get engineering and operations teams working in sync. Perfect for CTOs and engineering leaders thinking about modernizing legacy logistics systems. #Walmart #SupplyChain #RealTimeData #EdgeComputing #InventoryManagement #Logistics #DataEngineering #RetailTech #CTO #TechnicalLeadership #EngineeringOrg #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Podcast #DataPipelines #LegacyModernization Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
