In the first Amazon Web Services’ (AWS) "Amazon City on a Cloud Innovation Challenge," Neptune Technology Group Inc. (Neptune) has been named as a grand prize winner for its N_SIGHT™ IQ intelligent analytics software for utilities, which runs on the Amazon Web Services cloud computing network.
The Cloud Innovation Challenge recognizes applications that contribute to helping solve local government challenges. Accordingly, N_SIGHT IQ provides water utilities with the ability to store and analyze up to 10 years of homeowners’ consumption data, along with advanced analytics based on historical trends and flagged consumption events…
In addition, the cloud-based application offers the homeowners themselves access to see, track and manage information on their water usage, including alerts for consumption anomalies. By making usage information available to the consumer, questions regarding high water bills are easier to resolve, and homeowners can be more proactive in their own use of water.
