Case Study: a UK-based smart-building technology provider achieves real-time IoT visibility with Ficode's AWS event-driven platform

UK-based Smart-building Technology Provider cuts future integration effort 40% to 50% with Ficode

A UK-based smart-building technology provider needed a scalable, real-time data processing architecture for its cloud-based building management platform. Their existing approach risked creating data silos and could not support live dashboards, immediate alerts, and accurate compliance reporting without disruption as the platform grew. They partnered with Ficode to design an AWS event-driven architecture capable of handling high-volume IoT telemetry.

Ficode implemented a solution using an event bus built with Apache Kafka and Amazon EKS to create a reliable backbone for data flow. This enabled real-time monitoring, energy analytics, and facility management from a single pipeline. The results included achieving a sub-60-second visibility target for IoT data, a 40-50% reduction in future integration effort, and a unified foundation that supports live dashboards, historical reporting, and multi-channel alerts from one reliable record.
