Data-integration Microservice for an IoT-Product

My Customer moved his offering to a different IoT-Platform and needed to integrate the binary data coming from his roof-humidity sensors into the new platform. As there was no way of changing anything on the sensor-side of thousand of installed sensors, it had to be resolved on backend-side. I analysed the data coming from the sensors and then developed a python-microservice for the customer that parses the binary data and translates it to the python-based format required by the IoT platform of choice. The microservice offers an endpoint to the devices and they transfer their data by https.

The microservice also does a little a little intelligent observing and alarming jobs. If invalid data is coming from one sensor a operator-employee of the customer gets informed. If a sensor cannot be matched to a end-customer or build they also get informed.

This Microservice is now handling measurement-transfers from a couple of thousands of sensors that are sending every three hours and is now running reliably for over 3 years
