Project Summary

Pwrteams (formerly Skelia) performed a complete architectural overhaul of an irrigation platform, migrating it to a microservices architecture and improving the scheduling engine and watering algorithm. The new platform can adjust watering frequency and duration based on weather and is currently in beta while Pwrteams manages maintenance and updates. The vendor holds weekly meetings and maintains active communication with the client.

Key Challenges

  • Reengineer a mature legacy system to incorporate modern programming advances

Project Deliverables

  • Microservices-based system architecture
  • Enhanced scheduling engine
  • Improved watering algorithm
  • Beta platform deployment
  • Ongoing maintenance and updates

Project Solution

Skelia performed a complete architectural overhaul of the legacy irrigation system using Java, migrating it from a monolithic design to a microservices architecture. They enhanced the scheduling engine and improved the platform algorithm so it can adjust watering frequency and duration based on weather. The vendor deployed the platform into a beta environment and continues to provide maintenance and updates.

Project Outcome

  • Two enterprise accounts migrated to the new platform
  • Improved functionality and cost savings for end clients
  • Established weekly project management cadence with direct access to engineering staff
