"Yandex" has launched the Routing Lite service, which will help small companies automatically plan routes for couriers, drivers, sales representatives, and other traveling employees.

The new service is specifically tailored to the needs of small businesses and is suitable for entrepreneurs and small companies with a staff of up to five traveling employees. As a rule, small businesses often have to create routes manually using tables and mapping services, which usually takes up to 3 hours and does not allow distributing the workload evenly. Routing Lite helps ensure the same workload for performers and reduces planning time by 12 times — to 15 minutes.

With the service, you can calculate in a few minutes how many and what orders need to be assigned to each performer so that they are all completed as quickly as possible. Users can automatically send route sheets to performers through their personal account and monitor the progress of routes in real time. A directory of permanent addresses, the ability to work with routes from a phone, and statistics on order fulfillment will soon appear in the service.

Currently, Routing Lite is operating in test mode. Companies that want to participate in testing can register on the service website and get free access to it. After testing, access will become paid, the cost will depend on the number of connected performers.

A storage system is the only infrastructure layer where an error cannot be “rolled back”: neither a reboot nor a configuration rollback will restore lost data. That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
