Challenge

Dainik Bhaskar was looking for an expert team to consult with on their Dainik Bhaskar Plus mobile app architecture to support growth from 1 million to 10 million users. As users were increasing on the platform, server and maintenance costs were increasing. The mobile app notification system was broken and they were facing a slow development process.

Solution

WeDigTech team provided consulting on the scalable server-side and mobile app architecture to support 10 million+ app users. We did the GCP to AWS migration by setting up AWS clusters of EC2 machines with a load balancer. We designed and implemented a robust personalized mobile app notification system using AWS SNS that supports 10 million+ notifications in a day. We also designed and implemented a scalable server-side and mobile app architecture with NodeJs and MongoDB to facilitate performance and a faster development delivery pipeline.
