Modernising a public-sector infrastructure application
Modernisation, migration, reporting, and ongoing engineering for SIB-BW2 street-object infrastructure management.
Software engineer, through VertexWare
The problem
SIB-BW2 manages street-object infrastructure for public-sector stakeholders. The application required ongoing feature work, bug fixes, quality work, and migration from an older Java/Karaf runtime to a current stack.
Before and after
Starting point
The existing system carried legacy data and reporting requirements across Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MSSQL operations. Stakeholders also needed direct German-language coordination and technical documentation.
What I did
- Worked on the modernisation from Java 8/Karaf to Java 21/Spring Boot.
- Developed the primary migration tool for the ASB-Object (ASB-ING) standard.
- Built the majority of the reporting functionality from zero.
- Delivered bug fixes, features, quality work, stakeholder liaison, and technical documentation.
Outcome
- About 30 reports built, and report generation is roughly 60% faster across the board.
- The migration tool is in ongoing use and moves thousands of structures (Bauwerke) to the ASB-ING standard as needed.
- The move from Java 8/Karaf to Java 21/Spring Boot is under way while development continues.
My role
- Software-engineer delivery in the existing product team
- Direct German-language liaison with state-government stakeholders
- Technical documentation alongside migration, reporting, bugs, and features
