Learning & Academic Support Platform
Stack: React | Node.js | AWS | MongoDB | Redis | Elasticsearch
CHALLENGE
The learning & academic support platform requires a highly scalable system to manage the higher number of users during the peak hours or exam cycle. This platform requires real-time Q&A tutoring, instant textbook accessibility, fast content delivery, and much more. The main challenges are accurate search results from a vast content library, managing higher traffic, and preventing education data from misuse.
SOLUTION
Our dedicated engineers build a React-based education platform that is powered by Node.js and microservices hosted on AWS. MongoDB allowed flexible content modeling and Redis caching improve the response times and offer faster load time to enhance user experience. Elasticsearch is used for faster search and provides semantic search across billions of academic inquiries. We use WebSockets for real-time tutoring and AWS for auto scaling.
