After an initial workshop in which WDT and XITASO sharpened the common vision, the project was implemented using our agile approach. After starting the development, a first ready-to-run version of the IoT web application, a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), was created within a few weeks.
The interdisciplinary team composition of all roles involved contributed to the best possible development of the IoT web application. For example, a UI/UX expert was able to develop a state-of-the-art user experience for the IoT web application for desktop, tablet, and mobile use thanks to the use of a user-centered design flow as well as the definition of personas and the conduction of focus interviews.
The IoT web application was implemented purely cloud-based with Azure. Thereby, the WDT devices do not send their values to the Azure IoT hub without the consent of the administrator and end customer roles, which ensures data sovereignty and security. In addition to .NET in the backend and React in the frontend, XITASO’s IoT experts also used the Infrastructure as Code tool Pulumi.
The end result is an IoT web application that is being tested with the first customers, as well as a backlog filled with further ideas and possible use cases, which will be explored together in follow-up workshops. The aim is to sharpen the focus on which useful features with high added value will be implemented in the future.
This close partnership, based on early customer feedback, is the foundation of every project’s success.
