Abstract: The aviation industry has perpetually aligned itself with technological evolutions, anchoring its mission in fortifying safety and amplifying operational efficiency. This research unfolds a narrative that intricately binds three pivotal technological domains: Machine Learning (ML), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Data streams. When synergized, these domains manifest a potent avenue that promises to redefine the contours of aero engine diagnostic procedures. Central to our exploration is the axiom that the multifaceted data emanating from aero engines, when adroitly analysed, can proactively signal operational discrepancies, potentially long before they translate into tangible complications. The IoT ecosystem, endowed with a diverse range of sensors, meticulously logs data spanning an array of engine operational metrics, encapsulating everything from nuanced temperature variances to intricate vibrational oscillations. Such expansive, real-time data streams necessitate analytical methods that transcend traditional paradigms. This is where Kafka emerges as an instrumental tool. As a proficient data streaming mechanism, Kafka ensures seamless, lossless ingestion of large data volumes. Beyond mere data capture, Kafka facilitates a fluid interface with ML platforms, enabling on-the-fly data interpretation. This dynamic integration guarantees that inferences related to engine functionality or impending malfunctions are derived with expedited precision. Machine Learning stands as the linchpin in this triad, shifting the focus from rudimentary benchmarking to a more nuanced, data-informed analytical approach. Through ML, discernible patterns embedded within both archival and contemporaneous data are extracted, resulting in predictions characterized by an unparalleled degree of precision. The iterative learning from vast data repositories enhances the model's foresight, culminating in a more nuanced anticipation of test failures. To encapsulate, our study paints a visionary scenario wherein the conventional aero engine evaluations transition from being mere periodic inspections to a sophisticated, data-led predictive endeavour. Through the amalgamation of IoT's data acquisition prowess, Kafka's real-time data orchestration, and ML's predictive acumen, we envisage a transformative trajectory aimed at bolstering aero engine dependability and overarching aviation safety.
