Multi-vendor platform handling 50k transactions/sec.
Key Outcome
ShopSphere Inc. is a rapidly growing multi-vendor e-commerce platform that connects thousands of artisanal sellers with a global customer base. As they prepared for their biggest holiday season yet, they realized their current platform could not handle the projected traffic.
ShopSphere faced a catastrophic scalability ceiling. During previous flash sales, their servers would crash under the load of 10,000 concurrent users, resulting in millions of dollars in lost revenue. The database queries were unoptimized, leading to slow page loads that drove customers away.
We executed a complete platform migration to a cloud-native microservices architecture using Kubernetes for intelligent auto-scaling. We implemented headless Magento coupled with a React frontend for lightning-fast page transitions and integrated Redis for aggressive caching of product catalogs.
The precise tech stack engineered to deliver this solution.
The platform successfully handled over 50,000 transactions per second during Black Friday with zero downtime. Revenue for the fiscal year tripled, and the new vendor portal reduced product onboarding time by 70%, doubling the available SKUs.
