Commercial customers wanted the data to load-balance energy use, while residential users were clamoring to go green; a single interface was needed to satisfy them all. A government mandate meant the utility had just four months to complete the project. When we arrived on the scene, the clock was already ticking. The abundance of information streaming from the smart meters needed to be harnessed via foolproof database management but, because smart meter technology had yet to reach maturity, data integrity problems abounded. Once captured by the utility, the information was fragmented into multiple silos. On top of all that, the negligence of a third-party vendor had left us with an interface that couldn‘t be implemented, meaning the job would be twice the work we‘d been led to expect.

729 used complex application profiling and monitoring protocols using New Relic to help Rally stand up to the pressure of massive traffic loads. By digging deep into code performance and building highly scalable backend 729 made sure latency met the customers highest expectations.

729 was tasked with helping them solve their .net integrations and building out the front end.

Over the last 8 months we have worked on nearly every part of the code base and continue to help them streamline delivery, testing, and production of new features.

Solving complex technical debt has been one of our greatest inputs to this project.

We have partnered with other vendors to provide the most cost effective solutions to dev ops, design and seamless marketplace API’s.

729 has built a system to scan voting ballots and collate them into a private voting application.

Client Challenges

• Synchronize large volumes of data from physical devices that are not always connected to the internet using an application that is accurate, secure, and fast.
• Scan large numbers of various types of ballots in minutes.
• Show high level of accuracy of data during and after a vote in a high security election environment.
• Build a flexible system that can stretch to fit new ballot types and work with any hard printing application.

729’s Achievements

• 729 Solutions built the on site application in .Net to run completely stand alone on laptops, then connect to the internet to backup all data, utilizing cloud computing to its fullest potential to make sure results were delivered quickly and securely.
• 729 Solutions delivered on the incredible data integrity requirements of this customer.
• AWS was also used to provide high performance image manipulation and 729 customized high integrity Optical Mark Recognition software.
• 729 built a synchronization tool to manage large volume of data from the physical scanning devices that were not always connected to the internet.

Client Challenge

Cloud based video processing, with delivery to a high traffic mobile application.

Using AWS, 729 Solutions created a fully scalable hosting solution that exposes an API to a native iOS application. The application ingested video clips from the users, processed them, then linked to other videos in the same storyline before making them available for streaming to the larger public user base.

These resulting stories could then be shared with other users, or delivered as videos to social media outlets. Given the continued popularity of video and social media, we also ensured that the application would dynamically scale with the growth of the user base, as well as handle high traffic peaks with little-to-no warning.
