Business challenges

The shipping industry operates under geopolitical uncertainties, stringent environmental regulations, and an erratic global climate. Further, unplanned technical outages can have profound implications for a freighter’s bottom line. Consequently, it is no longer enough to be reactive, and SMEC Marine intended to access a ship’s key performance metrics on the fly to preempt operational risks.


However, in a world where conventional technology only supports physical bulk-data extraction from sea systems, how can it provide fleet operators with ready access to operational variables like speed, echo, RPM, torque, shaft rotation, thrust, stabilization, and wind speed to: The shipping industry operates under geopolitical uncertainties, stringent environmental regulations, and an erratic global climate.

Our approach

PiServe consultants conceived a comprehensive solution roadmap built around STC’s own Data Center. The team proposed a microservices-based, three-tiered architecture that catered to the localized hosting requirements, resolving possibilities of conflict with the latest corporate cybersecurity guidelines. It gathered requirements in an Agile Model and submitted the Functional Specification Documentation and solution wireframes for client review. Once approved, PiServe’s designers and developers commenced the project in Agile Sprint. As part of the engagement:

The Java Spring Boot framework has been used for building the backend, pacing up the development of web apps and microservices, and simplifying configuration

The frontend was built using AngularJS, making it possible to design rich, interactive features for the website and the user app within a single framework

MinIO, the high-performance object storage, has been leveraged to provide a fast and efficient file repository for the solution

Customized solutions were built to replace InspireU’s integration with third-party tools like Wufoo, Calendly, and Dropbox

Safetywhat delivered with ingenuity, using best-of-breed services and unmatched talent, transforming InspireU into a secured, scalable and user-friendly platform.

The solution was developed with high fidelity to STC’s expectations, serving as a digital gateway to InspireU. Here, STC stakeholders and startups can interact, collaborate and share inspiring ideas on building the next Unicorn.
