STEP 5

Solution

The integration platform was developed as a cloud-native, configuration-driven system designed to automate and simplify multi-system data handling.

Rigid Infrastructure

Problem

Traditional point-to-point integrations were rigid and time-consuming to maintain.

Solution

With microservices, containerization, and a centralized process layer, we built a modular and scalable structure to enable flexible deployments.

Configurable Workflows

Problem

Integrations were not reusable across regions or brands.

Solution

Built a canonical data structure and database-driven configuration logic that allows activating or disabling integrations instantly without changing code.

Automated Deployments

Problem

Manual deployment cycles slowed down releases.

Solution

Adopted a DevOps-driven CI/CD pipeline on Azure, automating deployment and version control with faster release cycles.

Seamless Data Routing

Problem

Data routing between multiple systems was prone to manual intervention.

Solution

Implemented intelligent routing logic managed directly through configurations, enabling smooth data movement and zero downtime during updates.
