The Operator is dead. Long live the Operator!

Giving the operator some love with a conversational app that uses Finastra API's

Comment

Inspiration

Operators are responsible for running the back-end batch processing and making sure that it completes. Sometimes they run overnight run on several instances. This is usually performed at night. Created a conversation app and also a console app to run the overnight run on several instances and query the status.

What it does

Allows an operator to conversationally query the status of the overnight run in Phoenix. The console app allows an operator to run several nightly runs on one machine.

How I built it

Google Assistant Actions with Google Cloud Functions backend. And .Net app.

Challenges I ran into

Node.js learning curve, especially with asynchronous functions!

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Getting the app to post to my phoenix xm server and return a response which we were able to parse.

What I learned

That Node.js is harder than I expected!

What's next for "Operator Fun"?

Improving the console app and deploying to Ops. Adding more features to the Assistant app.
