The Grid Data Family
Ten applications that ingest, validate, integrate, analyse, visualise, and verify utility data — deployed together, registered together, tested together.
Architecture
Utility data sources flow through the Integration Suite onto a governed Kafka backbone; the Management Platform and Enhanced Analytics turn them into billing-grade data and a live network picture; Reporting, Whisper-Wind, and Home Energy Management carry the results to every audience — while ControlPlane, the App Manager, and the Testing Platform deploy, register, and verify the whole estate.
Products
ControlPlane packages every application into versioned bundles and installs them on Kubernetes with Helm — or on a single server with Docker Compose.
A complete Meter Data Management System: streaming ingestion, a three-phase VEE engine with weather-aware and machine-learned estimation, an exception workbench, master data from your systems of record, and certified, immutable data served to billing, outage operations, gas, device commands, market settlement, analytics, and regulators.
A workflow-oriented, map-driven utility data simulator. Draw a service territory — or search a place — and Grid Data Simulator stands up a complete synthetic utility: electric, gas, and water networks from substation to meter, customers with lifecycle events, meters with real registers and interval channels, and interval, register, and SCADA telemetry.
GDEA joins the connectivity model from ArcGIS with real-time SCADA telemetry and serves one operational picture across electricity, gas, and water — with power-flow and hydraulic solvers, a what-if scenario sandbox, a complete large-load interconnection workflow, and fifty-five analysis checks on top — in the family’s shared shell, with a published API contract behind it.
HEM builds a load model of a house from its address, then schedules its appliances around the price of electricity and the output of solar, wind, and storage — with the thermostat inside its comfort band and every job finished as asked.
GDIP connects the utility’s enterprise — SAP IS-U, Oracle CC&B, Maximo, PI, market operators, and the Grid Data family itself — through integration flows designed visually and executed on Apache Camel 4.
When any Grid Data application starts, it registers itself with a single API call. The App Manager tracks its lifecycle, stores its configuration, and schedules the database housekeeping that keeps the whole estate fast.
Connect to the data you already have — PostgreSQL, Prometheus, Trino, Kibana, REST APIs, or plain JSON — build charts in a guided dialog, compose dashboards, publish, and embed them anywhere the business works.
Whisper-Wind adds voice-driven navigation and actions to the family’s applications, and a chat assistant that turns plain-English questions into safe, read-only SQL — returning tables, explanations, and CSV exports instead of tickets to the data team.
GDTS ships with seeded test suites for the platform’s APIs, lets QA compose multi-step HTTP test cases in the browser, executes everything against live environments, and streams results in real time — with an AI assistant that drafts tests from a sentence.
Principles
Master data and validated readings flow once, and every application draws from the same converged answer.
Keycloak secures every UI and API in the family — one login model, one role model, everywhere.
Shared design tokens mean an operator moves between applications without relearning a thing.
Versioned bundles through ControlPlane put the same release in dev, QA, and production.
Every application registers itself with the App Manager on startup — the inventory is always true.
Grid Data Simulator stands up whole synthetic utilities and the Testing Platform verifies every release against them.
Start with one application or the whole platform — everything deploys from the same bundles, on your infrastructure or ours.
