Beats-Per-Minute (BPM): A Microservice-based Platform for the Monitoring of Health Related Data via Activity Trackers

Abstract

Beats-Per-Minute (BPM) is a microservice-based platform that provides a monitoring solution for the continuous acquisition, analysis and visualisation of health related data. BPM combines Commercial Off-The-Self (COTS) Activity Trackers and a scalable cloud-based infrastructure. This paper demon-strates the efficacy, reliability and integrity of BPM when utilised as a monitoring solution for health conditions, such as Cardio-vascular Disease. The results are indicative of the suitability of a microservice-based architecture for such a platform.
