Snowflake's (NYSE: SNOW) “data warehouse-as-a-service” got a lot of hype and a huge stock valuation.  Now warehouse management systems (WMS) have their own data-warehouse-as-a-service offerings.   AutoScheduler.AI is partnering with Rebus by Longbow.  Rebus provides real-time data from the WMS, and AutoScheduler uses that data to sequence activities in a way that optimizes operations.  Rebus + AutoScheduler – 1+1 = 3

 Short takes:
  • The surprise acquisition of Blue Yonder by Panasonic at a price of more than six times sales revenue is a head-scratcher.
  • Purchasing managers index shows “input” prices rising fast, putting pressure on margins.
  • Truckload spot pricing hit a new record high, according to DAT, signaling tighter capacity.
