E-Commerce Microservices Platform

Client: ShopNova
E-Commerce Microservices Platform — Retail project by Soumik Mukherjee
0.8sPage Load Time
100K+ usersFlash Sale Capacity
50x/weekDeployment Frequency
-35%Infrastructure Cost

The Challenge

ShopNova's monolithic e-commerce platform was buckling under 50,000 daily users during flash sales. They needed a complete re-architecture to microservices with independent scaling, zero-downtime deployments, and a modern React frontend.

The Solution

I decomposed the monolith into 8 microservices: Catalog, Cart, Order, Payment, Inventory, Notification, User, and Analytics. Each service was independently deployable via Docker containers orchestrated on Kubernetes. Apache Kafka handled inter-service communication, while PostgreSQL and Redis managed data persistence and caching respectively.

Key Features

8 independently deployable microservices across the commerce domain
Kafka-powered asynchronous inter-service communication
Independent autoscaling per domain for flash-sale traffic
Zero-downtime rolling deployments on Kubernetes
Redis caching layer with PostgreSQL for durable persistence
Real-time analytics streamed from the event pipeline

The Outcome

Flash sales now absorb 100K+ concurrent users with 0.8s page loads. Deployment frequency rose to 50x per week, while infrastructure cost fell 35% through targeted autoscaling instead of over-provisioning the monolith.

Client Testimonial

Our flash sales used to be a nightmare. Now we handle 100K+ concurrent users without breaking a sweat. The microservices architecture Soumik designed is the best investment we've made.
