Architecture
FlatMesh Web Monitor runs on a high performance Microsoft Windows-based server.
A number of Windows services run in the background to perform tasks such as:
- accept incoming connections from GPRS Gateways in the field
- maintain connections to USB Gateways which may be directly attached to a PC acting as a server
- pass messages between services
- process the incoming data and perform any required configured data conversions or calculations
- send out any required alert messages via SMS or email
- periodic exports of data to client FTP servers for third party system integration
The core of the system is a Microsoft SQL Server database. It stores all data samples and diagnostic information for all sites.
The web front end is built on Microsoft ASP.NET which retrieves all relevant information from the database and generates reports at the user’s request.
Hosting
Senceive hosts the data for all remote systems in the field on their dedicated servers. All servers for customer deployments are housed in a secure third party data centre in the UK which has engineers on site 24/7. The operating company has multiple sites in the UK for disaster recovery and multiple Tier 1 network carriers, with no single point of failure between their data centres.
