United we stand, divided we fall!
The real strength of this system is based on the redundancy of the data and its distribution over a wide area. Excellent connectivity is required to reorder the data and reconstruct it once the user requests it.
All server data must be accessible at all times. Therefore, it is necessary for devices to be connected to each other to ensure a flow of data between them and to be able to send the necessary data to the ground when required. This system saves money by using an internal wireless network without the need for external services.
In addition, the total storage size of the server increases as the number of devices included in the network increases, which allows for great elasticity and scalability of the entire system.
Ground stations play a crucial role in the process. They request and gather data from devices deployed at sea. Once the data is collected, the ground stations transfer it to end users via fiber optic cables.
The use of fiber optics significantly increases the connection speed between servers and users, improving the overall quality of the service. To ensure optimal performance, these ground stations must be strategically located along the coasts of the designated area to support the operation of the devices.
It can happen that one device gets too far away from all others and ground stations, thus preventing connection to the network. Thanks to satellite technology, our devices can be operational at all times. Data from our network will always be accessible wherever the device is. Since this is an expensive technology, the first choice is to use the internal infrastructure network, using the satellite technology as a backup in case of need.
