Problem
A logistics company needed a comprehensive fleet management solution that could track vehicles in real-time, optimize routes, and provide detailed analytics for cost reduction and operational efficiency. They required a scalable backend system capable of handling thousands of concurrent GPS data streams and real-time notifications.
Approach
Frontend Development
- •React with TypeScript and Material-UI for responsive dashboard
- •Real-time GPS tracking with WebSocket connections for live updates
- •Route optimization using Google Maps API and custom algorithms
- •Driver behavior monitoring with safety scoring and alerts
- •Fuel consumption tracking with cost analysis and reporting
- •Maintenance scheduling with predictive alerts and service history
- •Mobile-responsive dashboard for on-the-go fleet management
Backend Architecture
- •Node.js with Express and TypeScript for RESTful API
- •PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB for time-series GPS data storage
- •Redis cluster for real-time data caching and session management
- •WebSocket server with Socket.io for live vehicle tracking
- •Message queue with RabbitMQ for handling GPS data streams
- •Microservices architecture for scalability and maintainability
DevOps & Infrastructure
