Context and objectives
Our client is a country's sovereign energy and energy services provider. The government deployed smart metering technologies that gather large amounts of fine-grained energy consumption data, and the client struggled to make use of it (storage, processing, visualisation, etc.).
The project consisted of framing and building a data platform, data pipelines and the associated web products.
Outcome
- The platform is the central point for data storage and processing, with more than 4 TB of data processed every day.
- Several web apps are in production, some of them sold as products by the client.
Our approach
Step 1: framing the platform
- Strong requirements for data criticality and sovereignty led to the implementation of innovative cryptographic methods
- Large data volumes placed heavy demands on platform elasticity
Step 2: implementing the platform
- Extensive use of cloud-agnostic technologies
- Reliance on open-source technologies with a proven track record
Step 3: pipelines and web apps
- Development of a high-performance data processing pipeline
- Framing and build of several web apps, for internal and external use
