About the Client
A hybrid U.S.-India firm, leading player in the e-commerce space, specializing in managing large-scale product catalogs and service workflows. Their operations span diverse product categories and require seamless coordination across systems for accurate and timely execution.
Business Impact
By unifying variant management and optimizing outbound service operations, the global digital operations agency significantly improved catalog consistency, reduced manual errors, and enhanced scalability, leading to faster go-to-market times and operational efficiency.
The Challenge
The Mid-sized tech and eCommerce firm struggled with fragmented systems and redundant workflows that led to inefficiencies and poor scalability.
“Managing product variants across multiple systems was a nightmare. We needed a scalable solution that could unify our workflows and reduce redundant tasks.”
– Project Lead, Digital Transformation Partner
Our Approach
We conducted a full-stack assessment of the client’s existing systems to identify performance bottlenecks, integration gaps, and opportunities for modularization. We then implemented targeted enhancements focused on consistency, error handling, and scalability.
Why Node.js, React.js, MongoDB & PostgreSQL?
- Node.js offered event-driven, non-blocking I/O ideal for handling high-volume service requests.
- React.js enabled a fast, interactive UI for catalogue management.
- MongoDB provided flexibility for unstructured data, while PostgreSQL ensured transactional consistency, delivering the best of both worlds in a hybrid database model.
Key Initiatives
- Re-architected the backend for modularity and scalability
- Introduced single-event-driven variant management
- Enhanced outbound service workflows with structured error handling
- Integrated MongoDB and PostgreSQL for hybrid database capabilities
The Solution
We built a modular, event-driven backend system that consolidated product variant workflows and improved outbound service execution. The unified architecture minimized manual intervention and simplified future scalability. Robust error handling was embedded to ensure smooth service operations.
Features Delivered
- Centralized product variant creation via a single workflow
- Integrated error-handling framework for outbound services
- Independent modules for catalogue and service management
- Hybrid NoSQL/SQL database structure for flexibility and reliability
