Changes in the market and growing customer requirements often lead to increasing demands on data platforms. Existing and historically evolved on-premise platforms quickly reach their limits and have disadvantages in terms of flexibility, scalability and performance. For companies, however, the prompt and comprehensive evaluation of data is relevant to competition - and enables new services for end customers.
The existing data platform no longer met the customer's requirements, particularly with regard to future use cases and customer requirements. Together with Hyand, the company therefore decided to replace the legacy system with a modern, flexible and scalable fast data analytics platform in the cloud. The aim was to provide and analyze continuous industrial process data and present it visually in real-time dashboards. The platform had to be replaced in the shortest possible time so as not to impact ongoing business processes.
At the start of the project, Hyand carried out a comprehensive comparison of relevant platform providers. To this end, workshops were held with key stakeholders to define the individual requirements for the project. Together, the decision was made to use a combination of Microsoft Azure and Cloudera Data Platform as the most sustainable and suitable solution.
The establishment of a joint development team ensured that the customer's knowledge was built up at an early stage and on an ongoing basis. The cloud infrastructure was then set up and the data pipeline of the use case was implemented as a minimal viable product in order to check the tools and services proposed by the providers (in this case Microsoft and Cloudera) for their suitability for the specific customer requirements. The MVP was then developed ready for production and successfully put into operation.
Thanks to close and goal-oriented collaboration, the use of agile methods such as Scrum and extensive testing, a modern data platform in the cloud, including a real-time dashboard, was set up within the specified eight months. The company is now in a position to roll out structurally identical environments in an automated and reproducible manner. Compared to the previous on-premise architecture, the management and scaling of the systems has been significantly simplified or made possible in the first place.
