2. The mankind's energy world is transforming -
From a linear pipe model …
System-centric
Large-scale and central
Fossil-fuel and nuclear
…to a connected energy world
Green & clean technologies
Smaller-scale, distributed
Micro Grids, User centric

3. Climate change &
our impact on the
planet
Exponential rise of
renewable
technology
Rapid change
driven by Digital,
Data and AI

4. A connected
energy world will
only be functional
if we are able to
access all assets,
understand
conditions in
real-time and
remotely change
settings.

5. Day 2018
Products running on Kafka

6. E.ON Optimum
Enabling
customers to
understand
and reduce
their energy
consumption

7. Generating
transparency to
enable P2P
networks

8. Simris –
making 100%
energy
self-
sufficiency
possible

9. Using AI to detect single household devices
and optimize power consumption

10. And in Tech, please?

11. E.ON IoT solutions

12. E.ON IoT Core components ESP-IOT-CLOUD
is built on two
paradigms:
• IoT scale
capabilities of
public cloud
providers
• E.ON services
cloud-provider
independent and
fully based on
microservices

13. Leverage Kafka Partitioning
No Partitioning
- Round Robin, Random distribution
- Any Application can get any Message
- Transactions on DB layer guarantee
consistency
Kafka Partitioning
- Message Key determines Partition
- Ordering guarantee within Partition
- “Single-threaded” processing of
records for each single device
- Scale out by having many partitions
- Optimal cache locality for device
related tasks e.g. RPC calls to other
services
