Challenge & Approach

The Project

Smartshore has been collaborating with Hubble on this ambitious development. The application had to meet several challenges: integrating data from various sources (leasing companies, fuel cards, mobility cards), automating repetitive tasks, and making the solution scalable for future growth.

Technology & Development

The Smartshore team built the application with a modern technology stack:

  • Symfony as a backend framework for a robust and maintainable codebase

  • Vue.js for a user-friendly frontend with dynamic dashboards

  • Elastic for powerful search and analytics capabilities within large datasets

  • Kubernetes for scalable and reliable hosting

The collaboration follows a dedicated team model in which Dutch architects and scrum masters work closely with developers from India. This ensures direct communication and effective collaboration.

Results

The project was delivered in multiple phases:

  • Phase 1: Delivery of the first version of the Hubble fleet management application

  • Phase 2: Launch of an extensive new version with a driver portal, ordering module and various business intelligence dashboards

  • Phase 3: Integration with AFAS, Active Directory and various SSO solutions

  • Phase 4: Migration to a state-of-the-art Kubernetes hosting solution

  • Phase 5: Delivery of a comprehensive car selection tool (car configurator)

  • Recently: All Hubble data migrated to a modern S3 storage solution, resulting in lower costs, higher reliability and a shorter Recovery Point Objective (RPO)

Hubble has since grown into the market leader in fleet management software in the Netherlands, with integrations with all major leasing companies. The platform now serves customers such as Albert Heijn, Unica and Fleetkennis, one of the largest fleet management companies in the Netherlands.
