What this diagram shows

  • Vehicle trackers send GPS, fuel and CAN data
  • Stream processing handles live tracking and alerts
  • Managers and drivers use separate apps

Prompt used

Deployment for fleet management: each truck has a GPS tracker reading CAN bus data (fuel, speed, engine hours) and a driver app on a phone. Trackers send data over 4G/MQTT to the cloud: an ingestion service on Kubernetes, stream processing for live location and alerts (overspeed, idling, geofence), a time-series DB and PostgreSQL, a route optimisation service, and a fleet manager web dashboard.
