Challenge

A global e-commerce platform needed to scale from handling thousands to millions of daily transactions. The existing infrastructure couldn't handle Black Friday traffic spikes, leading to crashes and lost revenue. They needed a solution that could scale infinitely while maintaining fast page loads.

Solution

Microservices Architecture

Redesigned the platform into independent microservices for catalog, cart, checkout, and inventory, enabling independent scaling and deployment.

Global CDN & Edge Computing

Implemented edge caching and CDN distribution to serve content from locations closest to users, reducing latency to under 50ms globally.

Real-Time Analytics

Built comprehensive analytics pipeline tracking user behavior, inventory levels, and sales performance in real-time for data-driven decision making.

Results

The platform now handles over 500,000 orders per month with 99.9% uptime, even during peak shopping events. Page load times average 50ms, and the system automatically scales to handle traffic spikes without manual intervention.

  • 300% increase in peak traffic handling capacity
  • Zero downtime during Black Friday sales events
  • 40% improvement in conversion rate due to faster page loads
