Utilities are evolving from periodic reporting to real-time operations. Smart meters, distributed energy resources, EV charging, grid sensors, and digital twins continuously generate massive streams of data that must be processed, analyzed, and visualized within seconds.

In this webinar, we'll explore how to design a scalable data architecture capable of handling millions of smart meter events while providing instant access for dashboards, operational analytics, geospatial monitoring, and digital twin applications. Rather than focusing on theory, we'll demonstrate a live end-to-end platform that ingests streaming telemetry in real time and powers interactive dashboards, network flow visualization, geospatial analytics, and live digital twins without moving data between multiple systems.

Whether you're modernizing an existing utility platform or designing a new smart energy architecture, you'll learn practical architectural patterns for building scalable, cloud-native real-time data platforms.
