Arena

Arena is a cross-platform compatible mobile and web application built using React Native, designed for both Android and iOS. It provides enriched monitoring and informed decision-making in electrical enclaves by combining physical measurements with cloud processing power.

Features

• Dynamic Dashboard: Users can customize their dashboards to display the most relevant data and insights.
• Sensors Management: Create, customize, and manage sensor devices.
• Real-time Updates: Continuously captures electrical measurements using advanced sensors.
• User Authentication: Secure login and role-based access control.

Technologies Used

• Frontend: ReactNative, React Router, Styled Components, Material UI.
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js
• Database: Amazon RDS, InfluxDB
• Real-time Communication: MQTT, AWS IoTCORE
• Cloud Services: AWS

AWS Services Used

In this project, the following AWS services were utilized to enhance functionality and performance:

• AWS IoT Core: For secure, bi-directional communication between the Arena sensors and the cloud.
• AWS MQTT: To enable real-time messaging and updates.
• AWS RDS: For relational database services to manage data storage.
• AWS API Gateway: To create, publish, maintain, monitor, and secure APIs.
• AWS Lambda: For running backend code in response to events and HTTP requests without provisioning servers.
• Amazon S3: For storing static assets and build files.
• AWS IAM: For managing access to AWS services and resources securely.
