Distributed E-commerce Platform (ISIMM)

Distributed e-commerce platform capable of processing 10K+ daily transactions with event-driven microservices architecture and real-time inventory synchronization.

ISIMM - End of Study Project
2021
Role:Lead Developer
Project Description

Built a comprehensive distributed e-commerce platform as an end-of-study project demonstrating advanced system design principles. The platform handles the complete e-commerce lifecycle including product catalog, shopping cart, order processing, payment, and inventory management. Architected with event-driven microservices using RabbitMQ for inter-service communication, solving complex distributed system challenges including eventual consistency, distributed transactions, and real-time inventory synchronization across multiple services.

Architecture

Pattern:

Event-driven microservices with SAGA pattern

Data Flow:

Client → API Gateway → Service → Event Publish → RabbitMQ → Consumer Services → Database
Key Features
  • Product catalog with search and filtering
  • Shopping cart management
  • Order processing pipeline
  • Payment processing simulation
  • Real-time inventory synchronization
  • User authentication and authorization
  • Event-driven architecture
  • Distributed transaction handling
