Google Cloud as an ally for the development of cloud native solutions
The challenge
The EGESIO project is mainly focused on providing the management and alerts of disease symptoms of a group of people within workplaces, by capturing biometric data from IoT devices. In addition, if a positive case of disease is reported, an analysis will be carried out to determine the chain of people who interacted recently with their GPS data history.
With 14K active devices, and a goal of reaching 100K by the end of 2021, the challenges reached by their development team was the data ingestion, the performance issues in the data analysis and a limited flexibility. This determined that changes are required in their architecture.
The solution
The People Media team, together with the Nubosoft team, carried out an exhaustive analysis to design a new efficient and flexible architecture that solves the problems encountered during their first phase of the EGESIO project.
As a result, the design of the new phase focused on:
Define the dataflows for data ingestion, processing and storage
Define the business and operation sections in their architecture to separate the analytic and BI process.
Efficiency in the analysis and execution of alerts.
Adopt flexibility by using microservices and serverless solutions.
