Infrastructure

Infrastructure

A cloud-native control centre captures telemetry, orchestrates analytics, and delivers insights in real time.

User requests are sent from the React single-page app to the backend API over HTTPS. The backend supplies UI state, authenticates users, and reads or writes operational data via PostgreSQL.

In parallel, a collector worker runs on its own Spring profile: it is triggered on a schedule, authenticates with the SEMS portal, fetches current performance and asset data, and stores it in the same backend schema.

These updates make the latest telemetry and synchronisation status immediately available for subsequent frontend calls.

About Me

Passion for data-driven process automation.

Markus Dunkel

Hi, I'm Markus—a software engineer with a keen interest in digitising business processes. I love translating complex business logic into clean, maintainable, and user-centred software.

I see the interplay between data structure, business logic, and user experience as the key to sustainable digital transformation, and I want to help shape that progress. I combine analytical skills from studying climate physics with the systems thinking of an IT specialist.
