Using this application Wireless mobile phone users can set thresholds and track their minutes used, SMS and other internet data usage. The other key feature of the site is that it keeps inventory of the transactions/events including calls, sms, mms, data connection to internet, etc that the user has made. The data is collected from the respective operator web sites periodically and stored locally for the user to view and generate custom reports.
The objective is to allow users to use their mobile phones without worrying about exceeding their minutes and have one place where they can review all events over the time. User receive a message based on their preference automatically by email and/or sms. The system was designed to account for a large user base and the downloads from operator websites can be done once in a day.
Apart from the website a Data Gathering module, which is loosely coupled with the web module was designed and implemented and was responsible for collecting user data from service provider websites, parse the data and log user details.

Following functionalities were implemented:
1. Connect to the Google Analytics API with a Google account from a properties file.
2. Properties for the class includes anything environment specific, database connect info, Google account info, timeout settings, OS dependent paths, etc.
3. Retrieve all NEW data (data not in the MYSQL database) for the whole sites.
4. Used a SAX parser to convert XML to Java Objects.
5. Report (log) any invalid / incomplete data.
6. Protect against API timeouts.
7. Report (log) API unavailability.
8. Method that if called by an external thread would interrupt the execution, and clean up all memory structures and external connections to the API and database.
9. Insert the data into a MYSQL database structure that closely matches the API data format, but has additional fields to help with retrieval at a later date, such as "insert time" and "a unique identifier".
10. The insert should be transactional so ensure partial data is not inserted.
11. Report (log) database errors and rollback any pending inserts that are related to the data being inserted.
12. Perform all data operations in less than 1 minute optimally, 5 minutes absolutely.
13. The database structure should have sufficient indexing to allow fast retrieval of all data.
