Key Challenges and Solution
App not cloud-hosted
Hosting The App On The Cloud
To better manage user demand, we hosted the app on the cloud. This brought benefits like high availability and reliability, ensuring the app is always accessible and assuring business continuity. The business also benefited from lower costs due to reduced hardware investments and lower maintenance by hosting the app on the cloud.
Offline database
Uploading Database To The AWS
After a detailed analysis of the current situation, our team started uploading all databases to the cloud. This simplified creating backups and reduced the risk of losing data accidentally or restoring to a previous state. The earlier system was more manual and erroneous. With the AWS upload, this process was automated, leaving no room for misses or data errors.
No consolidated data view
Merged Multiple Databases Into One
We merged all databases into one to reduce data redundancy. The business received a consolidated view of operational and functional data with clean and organized data structures. A single database with several filters gave full control to generate views for different business purposes. It also facilitated data maintenance and version control, which was simpler than having disconnected datasets and no clear view and control of data.
Lacking real-time data access
Cloud-hosting The Databases
We followed the best practices in database management and created RDS on AWS. This gave the client several advantages, like complete version control, enhanced data security, and automated backups. We also hosted the API on the cloud, which helped increase scalability and improved the database and API performance. The business boosted its ability to process tracking faster with a hosted database and API.
Our Approach
We optimized and published the client’s mobile app and introduced a GPS-tracking feature for seamless check-in and checkout of drivers at the company’s locations and kiosks. We also completed the AWS upgrade, after which the client received a consolidated view of their database.
