IoT Capability

Sensor data pipelines that scale, cheaply

T7 Solution builds high-volume sensor data pipelines — MQTT/HTTP/OPC-UA ingestion, TimescaleDB/InfluxDB historian, streaming analytics and ML feature stores for IoT.

Overview

Sensor data grows fast and gets expensive faster. Naive time-series storage bankrupts IoT projects long before the ML model ships.

We build ingestion and historian pipelines tuned for cost: hot/warm/cold tiers, downsampling, retention policies and columnar storage for analytics.

Streaming analytics (Kafka, Flink, or lightweight alternatives) handle anomaly detection, aggregation and alerting — with ML feature stores for downstream models.

What we ship

Multi-protocol ingest

MQTT, HTTP, OPC-UA, Modbus, CAN — normalised into one canonical event schema.

Historian

TimescaleDB, InfluxDB or ClickHouse with per-tag retention and continuous aggregates.

Downsampling

1s → 10s → 1m → 1h automatic rollups with per-tag policies to keep cost sane.

Streaming analytics

Anomaly detection, thresholding, windowed aggregations and alert emission on the stream.

Feature store

Reusable ML features for predictive maintenance, quality and yield models.

Data quality

Gaps, spikes, stuck-at-value and clock-drift detection with quarantine flows.

How we're different

Cost-tuned by design

Hot/warm/cold tiers, columnar storage and retention per tag — not one bucket that eats the budget.

Real streaming, not cron

Windowed aggregates and anomaly detection on the stream — alerts fire in seconds, not minutes.

Data-quality first

Stuck sensors, missing gateways and clock drift caught at the pipeline — not by the ML model six months later.

Model-ready

Feature store, backfill and point-in-time correctness so ML models get consistent data.

Frequently asked questions

How much data can this handle?

Comfortably millions of events per second per cluster with the right broker (EMQX/Kafka) and historian (Timescale/ClickHouse) choices.

How do you keep storage costs sane?

Downsampling per tag, tiered storage (hot/warm/cold), columnar analytics store and configurable retention per data class.

Can you integrate with our existing SCADA?

Yes — OPC-UA, Modbus and vendor SCADA (Wonderware, Ignition) integration is standard.

Do you support edge processing?

Yes — filtering, aggregation and ML inference at the edge (Linux gateway or dedicated device) with cloud sync.
