Challenge	There were several challenges faced: Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny. It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance. The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data. The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data. Read More

Solution	Altizon provided an end-to-end solution for the customer that included Design for Manufacture Service for building the connected device and the Datonis® platform that acted as the IoT platform for these connected devices. The Datonis® platform was provided to the customer in a SaaS model. The connected device consisted of a smart connected energy meter that was rated to accurately measure voltage. The connected energy meter had a SIM card slot and was compatible with all service providers in India. It was plug and play so you could simply plug it in and it would work. The customer was given a secure account on Datonis® and access the Datonis® Application API to access the data being transmitted by the energy meters. The customer built their portal that would visualize this data in a manner that made business sense to them. Read More Log in to view content
