SaaS application, AWS based solution for big content providers that allows to manage complex metadata. Key points: scalable, microservice architecture

Products: AccedoOne, AppGrid.

Product main goal to give ability to content providers maintain and control "look-and-feel" of the end-customers applications.

Main challenges:

be able to scale fast - from 70k requests per minute to 5-7 millions per minute within 3-5 minuntes

API performance - API can return complex JSO objects that may be dynamically constructed for each customer

Simplified AWS clod diagram with main services used:

Service fully based on the cloud(AWS). Java services packed into Docker containers and deployed with ECS. Main data storage represented with MongoDB and S3.

EC2

Load balancer

auto-scaling

DocumentDD/MongoDB

Elastic container service

redshift

Main AWS services used: S3, EC2, ECS, load-balancer, DocumentDB, redshift

Architecture diagram:

SaaS gives business managers a way to set required parameters to their applications and end users consuming those data via delivery API

Management console: initially AngularJS and after some time migrated to ReactJS

Front-end API: SpringBoot service, S3, Spring Security - users can authenticate with their ow credentials and all API requests controlled by the individual permissions granted to each user

Microservices: domain drive designed services with Spring Boot and uses MongoDB for main data storage and for data analytics used Redshift and RabbitMQ

Delivery API: represented by the highly scaleable gateway service writen with GoLang

Additional features:

Management API - API designed for system-to-system communication with unique API key for each user and allow to control data by integrating with other systems

Analytics - app usage data collection and representing it via dynamic charts and dashboards

A/B testing - gives ability to test changes only with some group of people before beploing to all users
