Tiivistelmä
The aim of the thesis was to plan and create an application for tracking the gravure printing process. In its current state, the process is divided between various subcontractors and viewing the overall status of the process requires a lot of manual interaction. The goal was to gather process information from various data sources and combine it in one dashboard view presenting the current status of production. The thesis presents a working application model for combining vendor and in-house data sources.
The thesis includes evaluating different open-source platforms and frameworks and using them to develop a modern, web-based production tracking dashboard. The goal was to create an application capable of handling various 3rd party data connections and providing a single overview of different parts of the printing process.
The successful development of the application proved that open-source platforms and frameworks used with Agile development methologies are applicable in a commercial environment.
