Enabled Seamless Device Communication and Telemetry with Node.js APIs
Challenges
- The client’s existing infrastructure struggled with handling high volumes of telemetry data from thousands of devices simultaneously.
- Device communication was inconsistent, leading to delays in sensor readings and alerts.
- Scaling the system for new devices without affecting performance was difficult.
- Integrating multiple device types with different communication protocols caused data inconsistencies and reliability issues.
Solutions
- We developed Node.js APIs optimized for asynchronous processing and real-time communication with IoT devices.
- MQTT protocol implemented by our team for lightweight, low-latency device messaging.
- We built WebSocket connections for instant updates and telemetry streaming to client dashboards.
- Utilised Redis caching to handle frequently accessed sensor data and reduce database load.
- Our team optimized backend processes to handle high concurrency and maintain reliable device connectivity.
You can hire expert node.js developers for similar IoT and real-time solutions to ensure robust backend architecture and scalable API performance.
