Case
Set-top box diagnostics for Wind Vision
Who were Wind Vision?
Wind Vision was a digital television service from WIND Hellas, which has since merged into Nova. It was based on a Broadband IPTV infrastructure, where digital sound and vision were carried over a telephone line to a set-top box and the customer’s TV.

Challenge
Wind Vision wanted to be able to analyse set-top box diagnostics data. They were looking for an end-to-end solution, to include data retrieval from the set-top box, through to data visualisation and dashboards.
Solution
Merapar developed a complete solution to analyse diagnostics data from the set-top box. Set-top boxes in the field send diagnostics data to a data processing cluster on a scheduled basis, where it is processed before being visualised in Kibana.
Results
- Automated retrieval of statistics
- Cost effective data storage for statistical data
- Scalable by design
- Powerful processing and data visualisation deliver real business benefits
- Easily create user-defined dashboards
