Our enterprise municipal service company seeks to develop a robust real-time data platform. This platform will centralize data from various city departments, allowing for improved decision-making and service delivery. By integrating cutting-edge technologies like Apache Kafka, Spark, and Snowflake, the initiative aims to facilitate data-driven urban planning and operations.

📋Project Details

The municipal services sector is tasked with managing and optimizing urban resources effectively. Our enterprise company is embarking on a project to build a real-time data platform that aggregates and processes data from multiple municipal departments, such as traffic management, waste collection, water supply, and emergency services. The objective is to enhance data visibility and improve coordination across the city services. This platform will leverage technologies like Apache Kafka for event streaming, Spark for data processing, and Snowflake for data warehousing. We aim to implement a data mesh architecture to ensure scalability and flexibility, allowing each department to manage its own data domain while ensuring cross-domain connectivity. Additionally, integrating MLOps practices will enable predictive analytics, providing actionable insights for resource allocation and incident management. The platform will also incorporate data observability tools to monitor data quality and lineage, ensuring reliable data-driven decisions.
