This question is part of a case study — click to read the full scenario(Case 16)
CASE STUDY: AutoIoT
Overview: Connected car manufacturer. 1M vehicles sending telemetry every 5 seconds.
Business: Predictive maintenance alerts, real-time fleet tracking, monetize anonymized data.
Executives:
- CEO: "Leverage AI to predict failures."
- CTO: "Current MQTT brokers crashing. Need fully managed, scalable ingestion."
- DPO: "Vehicle location is sensitive. Strip PII before analytics."
Tech: Ingest millions of msgs/sec, real-time stream processing for anomalies, store raw data for ML, sub-second queries for dashboards.
Constraints: Vehicles lose connection and send late batch data. ML models updated weekly. Strict analytics budget.
Which architecture should you design for the data ingestion and processing layer to replace the crashing MQTT brokers?
