Challenges

Energy companies produce a large amount of data daily. This data is increasing every day as the industry is advancing with smart devices and installing sensors. However, managing such a humongous amount of data has been a tedious task for these companies in the absence of a suitable data analytics and visualization system.

Our client failed to take full advantage of the data generated through the sensors installed at each facility. So, they wanted a system to disrupt the data generated by their facilities every day. Also, they wanted to spot equipment issues and prevent monetary loss. The company needed a system to quickly analyze data and generate instant reports as per their requirements. Their main aim was to minimize downtime and maintain better recurrent revenue flows.
