Introduction of a middleware solution for power scheduling

Project duration: 8 months

Brief description

As part of the overall international project, the customer is converting its system landscape to power scheduling. The existing system is replaced by the standard solution DeltaXE from Powel. The customer will develop a middleware solution using Kafka to connect to internal and external third-party systems (e.g. OpenLink Endur, SAP). The PTA is responsible for the technical specification of the middleware interfaces to the existing systems and DeltaXE. Furthermore, the PTA takes over the communication and control of the development teams with regard to the implementation of the interfaces and the associated test activities.

Supplement

In joint workshops with the manufacturer Powel as well as representatives of the specialist departments, the technical requirements for the middleware solution and the interfaces are determined. This includes above all the mapping of the respective data flows (deal and master data) and the associated data preparation. This is documented in a comprehensive catalog of requirements and supplemented by mappings at the attribute level of the deal and master data. The resulting work packages are coordinated by the PTA and implemented by the international development teams. Furthermore, the PTA develops the test strategy for the unit and integration test and creates a test concept for this purpose. The test activities are implemented by Azure DevOps, in which the test cases, test executions and errors are documented. The PTA is responsible for the operative test management for these test levels and supports the execution of the integration tests.

Subject description

The middleware is a component of the system landscape that ensures the timely, correct and flexible transfer of energy deals to the DeltaXE power scheduling system. Based on the deals from the various source systems, DeltaXE generates schedules and sends them to the regional utilities.
