Construction and Real Estate | 500 | $50M | United States | Rackspace Technology | Rackspace Cloud Native | Professional Services | 2020 | In 2020, Century Engineering implemented Rackspace Cloud Native as a Professional Services engagement to commercialize its SmartSWM stormwater management solution. The initiative centralized cloud native development, Internet of Things and edge data ingestion, and data management to provide real time remote monitoring and automated control for stormwater facilities. The Rackspace Cloud Native deployment delivered a multi tier architecture combining AWS hosted backend services and edge microcontroller nodes at sites. Functional modules included sensor telemetry ingestion, signal conditioning and tamper detection at the edge, a cloud based decision support engine that consumes hyper local weather forecasts and on site telemetry, and orchestration logic to command release valves. Hardware changes and firmware tuning addressed analog to digital signal quality for pressure transducers, cellular modem connectivity, and solar power monitoring to ensure reliable field operation. Onica by Rackspace Technology acted as the implementation partner to refine product architecture and production readiness on AWS. Integrations explicitly included AWS platform services for cloud hosting, IoT telemetry pipelines between on site microcontrollers and the cloud decision support system, and data management workflows for telemetry, weather forecast inputs, and operational alerts. The solution supports remote operations for monitoring water depth, temperature, and solar generation, and it enables automated actuation of discharge valves based on computed optimal water surface elevations and discharge rates. Rollout followed a two phase approach starting with hardware consolidation and signal interface fixes, followed by cloud enhancements for tamper alerts, security hardening, and improved backend logic. Governance centered on operationalizing automated control workflows and remote override capabilities for engineering teams, with documentation and component guidance provided during implementation. Reported outcomes included improved system reliability and security, reduced field maintenance complexity, and operational benefits such as smaller facility footprints and enhanced pollutant removal, and the team is pursuing machine learning driven predictive models as the next development phase. | |

Construction and Real Estate | 500 | $50M | United States | Rackspace Technology | Rackspace Internet of Things & Edge | Professional Services | 2020 | In 2020, Century Engineering implemented Rackspace Internet of Things & Edge as part of a Professional Services engagement to operationalize its SmartSWM stormwater management product. The work was delivered by Onica by Rackspace Technology with Rackspace Technology as the vendor and an AWS cloud backend hosting the decision support layer. The implementation established an edge and cloud architecture that pairs on-site microcontrollers and analog sensors with a cloud hosted decision support system. Functional modules implemented include real-time remote monitoring, hyper-local weather forecast ingestion, autonomous valve control for discharge management, tamper detection and alerting, signal conditioning for analog pressure transducers, and solar generation and consumption monitoring for remote sites. Data management and backend logic were refined to compute optimal pond surface elevations and discharge rates and to push actuation commands back to site controllers. Integration work focused on strengthening the AWS environment and instrumenting secure telemetry between field devices and the cloud, with Onica defining requirements for cellular modem selection and verifying analog to digital circuitry integrity. Operational scope targeted Century Engineering’s stormwater facilities used by public and private clients to meet EPA compliance monitoring requirements, while the company retained engineering oversight from its Hunt Valley, Maryland headquarters. Governance and rollout followed a two phase engagement model, first consolidating and hardening field hardware and electronics, then enhancing cloud architecture, alerting, and backend automation. Explicit outcomes cited include improved system reliability and security, higher pollutant removal performance, reduced land footprint for stormwater facilities through active volume management, and the initiation of machine learning model development for future predictive control. | |

Construction and Real Estate | 500 | $50M | United States | Amazon Web Services (AWS) | Amazon EC2 | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2021 | In 2021, Century Engineering implemented Amazon EC2 as the core compute layer for its SmartSWM™ back-end decision support system, deployed as an Application Hosting and Computing Services solution on AWS. The project targeted commercial readiness for an IoT driven stormwater management product that ingests hyper local weather forecasts, monitors on site sensor telemetry, and issues autonomous control commands to release valves to meet regulatory performance objectives. Onica by Rackspace Technology led a two phase engagement that combined cloud native development, Internet of Things and edge improvement, and data management refinement. Amazon EC2 instances host the decision support engine and data processing pipelines, while Onica refined the back end logic to compute optimal water surface elevations and discharge rates, and to orchestrate remote actuation commands. Hardware work included custom microcontroller configurations, analog to digital signal conditioning to manage noisy pressure transducer outputs, tamper detection and alerting, and cellular modem guidance for resilient connectivity. The implementation integrates on site microcontrollers and environmental sensors with cloud compute on Amazon EC2, supporting telemetry ingestion, solar generation and consumption monitoring, water temperature sampling, and forecast feed consumption. Operational coverage is oriented to Century Engineering projects for public and private clients, with the Cloud hosted back end providing remote access for monitoring, parameter adjustment, and automated control of distributed stormwater facilities. Governance and rollout followed a phased remediation and hardening approach where Onica improved system architecture, security posture, and scalability of the SmartSWM™ service. Outcomes reported in the engagement include improved reliability, increased security, and a scalable production environment, and Century Engineering has begun layering machine learning model development on top of the Amazon EC2 hosted data platform to support predictive facility behavior modeling. | |
