Platform architecture
A layered AMI architecture
The platform is designed as a modular ecosystem where each layer performs a clear function while remaining tightly integrated across the entire AMI value chain.
Device & Communication Layer
Connects smart meters, DCUs, gateways, and field devices through secure, standards-based communication for reliable data exchange and remote operations.
Head-End & Control Layer
Manages meter communication, command execution, scheduling, event handling, retries, and operational control across large-scale deployments.
Data Management Layer
Processes, validates, estimates, and manages interval and event data to deliver trusted information for billing, analytics, and utility operations.
Integration & Business Layer
Enables seamless integration with billing systems, sub-metering workflows, enterprise applications, and third-party utility platforms.
Analytics & Intelligence Layer
Transforms validated AMI data into dashboards, operational insights, reports, alerts, and actionable intelligence.
Application Experience Layer
Delivers consumer and utility-facing applications that improve visibility, engagement, and service efficiency through connected digital experiences.
Platform flexibility
Built to Fit Every Utility Journey.
Whether deployed as a complete AMI platform or introduced in phases, GridStar modernization adapts to utility priorities, existing systems, and long-term modernization goals.
End-to-end platform deployment
Use GridStar as the unified foundation for communication, control, data management, integration, analytics, and applications.
Phased modernization
Deploy selected platform layers first and expand over time as AMI programs grow and operational needs evolve.
Enterprise-connected adoption
Integrate GridStar with existing billing, CIS, analytics, and utility systems without forcing a full system replacement.
