Solution component view

From a design point of view it is intersting to apply the top 2 or 3 diagrams from the C4 models. We use the container as components view for the level of elements that are deployable as a standalone service / docker container.

  • Vaccine manager service: responsibles of managing the vaccine as an entity, and support CRUD operations on the vaccine lots.
  • Order management service: support the operations to manage a Vaccine Shipping Order
  • Reefer manager service: to manage the refrigerator container life cycle.
  • Vaccine Order & Reefer Optimization: to manage an optimized delivery plan for each vaccine order
  • Refrigerator container IoT as a simulator to help for the demonstration
  • Kafka event backbone and event store using IBM Event Streams as part of Cloud Pak for Integration
  • Reefer monitoring agent: subscribe to telemetry events to assess cold chain violation and detect refrigerator anomalies
  • Anomaly detection scoring: Deployed as a Watson ML service, this is the scoring for predicting a reefer failure.
  • Reefer maintenance process to dispatch field engineers to do the maintenance of the reefer when anomaly was detected.
  • Watson OpenScale to monitor model bias in real time.

The components we want to consider for the MVP:

Future component for MVP:

  • Vaccine Portal app: user interface to enter an order, view the reefer assignment…
  • Blockchain
