Containerised IIoT pipeline: from PLC to Grafana

An end-to-end, containerised telemetry pipeline that takes machine signals from the edge to live dashboards.

Architecture

The problem

Each site ran a hand-configured collection stack. The aim was one reproducible pipeline that could be deployed per site and upgraded safely.

Approach

  • Packaged every component as a container with versioned configuration.
  • Used MQTT at the edge and Kafka as the durable backbone between ingestion and storage.
  • Stored telemetry in TimescaleDB with retention and compression policies; visualised in Grafana.
  • Deployed on Docker and Kubernetes with the same manifests across environments.

Outcome

  • New sites are deployed from the same definitions instead of being configured by hand.
