Making the driverless S-train a reality
Setting direction for IT infrastructure strategy and architecture
Making rail a real alternative in Denmark and Europe
DSB is undergoing a major change. Copenhagen’s S-train is becoming the world’s largest unmanned urban railway. This brings significant demands for IT infrastructure and operational technology (OT).
Additionally, DSB is leveraging the capabilities of technology, including IoT and edge computing, alongside our existing IT infrastructure to support our business operations.

I have encountered an open culture with happy and accommodating colleagues, and one can make a difference because of an open collaboration where ideas are welcomed with open arms,"
