AI-Powered E-commerce Backend

An online retailer's legacy backend couldn't handle traffic spikes during sales events and had no personalization capability, leading to lost revenue.

The Challenge

The retailer's monolithic backend crashed during every major sale event, resulting in lost orders and damaged brand reputation. The system had no personalization — every customer saw the same homepage regardless of purchase history.

They needed a scalable, cloud-native backend that could handle 10x traffic spikes gracefully and deliver personalized product experiences based on browsing and purchase behaviour.

Our Solution

We rebuilt the backend as a set of microservices with auto-scaling on AWS, implemented a recommendation engine driven by purchase and browse history, and added a CDN-backed storefront that stays responsive under peak load.

Outcome

The platform now handles 10x traffic spikes without degradation, personalization drove a 25% revenue increase, and uptime stabilized at 99.95% across all sales events.
