eSoftThings has developed an IoT platform called eSoftLink that uses InfluxDB and Telegraf to provide real-time energy management for consumers and utility companies. The solution allows users to track their energy consumption down to the appliance level, enabling them to make informed decisions about their energy usage. With its implementation of InfluxDB, eSoftThings can collect a large volume of time series data that provides value-added services while maintaining GDPR compliance. The platform's architecture includes an in-house-built message broker, Apache Zookeeper and Apache Kafka for handling huge data volumes quickly, InfluxDB for time series data, Telegraf for metrics collection, and Chart.js with PHP for dashboarding. eSoftLink is a versatile and robust end-to-end IoT platform designed to work as a stand-alone on customer infrastructure, on the Edge, or in the Cloud, providing real-time data collection, management, analytics, and reporting tools that allow enterprises to benefit from the data they collect quickly and efficiently.
