(01) Overview

SmartLife IoT is a smart home platform that connects and manages millions of IoT devices worldwide. We architected the entire backend using event-driven microservices, enabling real-time device communication, automation rules and analytics. The system processes billions of telemetry events every month under ultra-low latency requirements. We designed the edge-to-cloud communication protocol, implemented device provisioning workflows and built a testing framework that cut deployment cycles by 60%. The platform supports Zigbee, Z-Wave and MQTT, giving users one unified experience across diverse smart home ecosystems.
