In 2020, global online sales surpassed $4.2 trillion, and this trend is expected to continue. The surge in online transactions reflects changing consumer shopping habits and underscores the growing importance of e-commerce in the global economy. To thrive in this competitive landscape, businesses must adapt to evolving user demands.

Our partner, MyBazar, approached us shortly after their product launch due to system malfunctions and the need for a dedicated maintenance and troubleshooting team. We embarked on a project to enhance their platform by addressing limitations, expanding functionality, and preparing MyBazar for future growth.

• Feature Expansion: Implement new features to enhance platform functionality and competitiveness.
• Backend Transformation: Migrate from a monolithic architecture to a microservices architecture for improved scalability and flexibility.
• Message Queuing Integration: Enhance communication and data exchange between microservices.
• Organizational Modifications: Streamline internal processes by creating a custom CMS solution for simplified management.

The Solution 

To address MyBazar's challenges, we implemented a comprehensive overhaul:

• Feature Enhancement:
  • Rewrote existing solutions for improved efficiency.
  • Added new features to bolster the solution.
• Backend Transformation:
  • Adopted a microservices architecture in the backend.
• Operational Impact:

We then thoroughly assessed the platform's state and proposed targeted improvements. These included migrating to a microservices architecture, creating a more intuitive custom CMS for simplified management, and implementing minor UI enhancements on the front end.
