Distributed Systems

Distributed Systems

In 2025, distributed systems aren't optional—they're essential for any application that needs to scale. We design and build fault-tolerant distributed systems that handle millions of daily events, process massive transaction volumes, and serve thousands of organizations reliably. From event-driven architectures to microservices, container orchestration to distributed databases, we use the full spectrum of distributed systems technologies to build platforms that scale.

What We've Built: Real Distributed Systems Results

Reconciliation Platform - We built a distributed system processing 8-10 million transactions per day with 100% accuracy. The system uses event-driven architecture, distributed processing, and fault-tolerant design patterns to handle massive transaction volumes reliably. This platform demonstrates our expertise in building systems that scale horizontally while maintaining perfect accuracy.

Multi-Tenant SaaS Platform - We developed a multi-tenant SaaS platform serving thousands of organizations with complete data isolation. The system uses tenant-specific database contexts, distributed caching, and horizontal scaling to support rapid growth. This platform showcases our expertise in building scalable multi-tenant architectures.

Blockchain-Based Platform - We built a distributed blockchain platform integrating Ethereum smart contracts, IPFS decentralized storage, and microservices architecture. The system demonstrates our expertise in combining blockchain technology with traditional distributed systems patterns for innovative solutions.

Multi-Application Platform - We developed a distributed platform with separate microservices for admin, venue portal, playlist generation, and device management. The system uses RESTful APIs, containerization, and service mesh patterns to enable independent scaling and deployment of each service.

These aren't theoretical architectures—they're production systems processing millions of transactions, serving thousands of users, and handling complex distributed workflows reliably.

Distributed Systems Technologies We Use

Message Queues & Event Streaming

Apache Kafka - We use Kafka for high-throughput event streaming, enabling real-time data processing and event-driven architectures. Kafka provides durable message storage, horizontal scaling, and exactly-once semantics for critical workflows.

Amazon Kinesis - We leverage Kinesis for real-time data streaming on AWS, enabling scalable event processing and analytics. Kinesis integrates seamlessly with other AWS services for complete cloud-native architectures.

RabbitMQ - We use RabbitMQ for reliable message queuing, enabling asynchronous processing and service decoupling. RabbitMQ provides flexible routing, message acknowledgments, and high availability patterns.

AWS SQS - We leverage AWS SQS for distributed queue processing in serverless architectures, enabling scalable campaign processing and master-worker patterns. SQS provides reliable message delivery, automatic scaling, and integration with AWS Lambda for cost-effective distributed processing.

Containerization & Orchestration

Docker - We containerize applications using Docker, enabling consistent deployments across environments. Docker containers provide isolation, portability, and efficient resource utilization.

Kubernetes - We orchestrate containerized applications with Kubernetes, enabling automatic scaling, self-healing, and service discovery. Kubernetes provides declarative configuration, rolling updates, and horizontal pod autoscaling.

Docker Compose - We use Docker Compose for local development and multi-container applications, enabling easy service composition and testing.

Distributed Databases

PostgreSQL - We use PostgreSQL for relational data with replication, partitioning, and distributed query capabilities. PostgreSQL provides ACID compliance, JSON support, and advanced indexing for complex data models.

MongoDB - We leverage MongoDB for document-based storage with sharding and replication. MongoDB provides horizontal scaling, flexible schemas, and high availability through replica sets.

Redis - We use Redis for distributed caching, session management, and real-time data storage. Redis provides sub-millisecond latency, pub/sub messaging, and distributed locking capabilities.

Microservices & API Architecture

FastAPI - We build high-performance microservices with FastAPI, enabling async processing and automatic API documentation. FastAPI provides type safety, dependency injection, and WebSocket support.

Spring Boot - We develop Java-based microservices with Spring Boot, leveraging Spring Cloud for service discovery, configuration management, and circuit breakers.

RESTful APIs - We design RESTful APIs following best practices for distributed systems, enabling service-to-service communication and client integration.

GraphQL - We implement GraphQL APIs for flexible data querying, reducing over-fetching and enabling efficient client-server communication.

Service Mesh & API Gateways

Service Mesh - We implement service mesh patterns for service-to-service communication, providing traffic management, security, and observability without application code changes.

API Gateways - We deploy API gateways for request routing, authentication, rate limiting, and API versioning across distributed services.

Cloud Platforms

AWS - We build distributed systems on AWS using services like EC2, ECS, Lambda, S3, RDS, ElastiCache, and CloudWatch. AWS provides comprehensive tools for building scalable, reliable distributed systems.

Google Cloud Platform - We leverage GCP services including App Engine, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, and Cloud Storage for distributed system deployment and management.

Observability & Monitoring

Distributed Tracing - We implement distributed tracing to track requests across multiple services, enabling performance analysis and debugging in complex distributed systems.

Logging & Monitoring - We set up centralized logging and monitoring for distributed systems, providing visibility into system health, performance, and errors across all services.

Metrics & Alerting - We implement metrics collection and alerting for distributed systems, enabling proactive issue detection and resolution.

How We Use These Technologies Across Projects

Event-Driven Architecture

We've implemented event-driven architectures using Kafka and Kinesis for platforms processing millions of events daily. Our reconciliation platform uses event streaming to process 8-10M transactions with perfect accuracy, demonstrating our expertise in building high-throughput event processing systems.

Microservices Architecture

We've built microservices platforms with separate services for different business functions. Our multi-application platform uses microservices for admin, venue portal, playlist generation, and device management, enabling independent scaling and deployment of each service.

Multi-Tenant Architecture

We've developed multi-tenant SaaS platforms using tenant-specific database contexts and data isolation patterns. Our community program management platform serves thousands of organizations with complete data separation, demonstrating our expertise in building scalable multi-tenant systems.

Container Orchestration

We've containerized applications using Docker and orchestrated them for production deployment. Our platforms use containerization for consistent deployments, enabling rapid scaling and efficient resource utilization.

Distributed Databases

We've implemented distributed database architectures using PostgreSQL with replication, MongoDB with sharding, and Redis for caching. Our platforms use distributed databases to handle large data volumes and provide high availability.

Service Communication

We've built RESTful APIs and GraphQL endpoints for service-to-service communication. Our platforms use API-first design patterns, enabling flexible integration and independent service evolution.

When You Need Distributed Systems

You need distributed systems when:

• You're processing massive volumes - You need to handle millions of transactions, events, or requests daily
• You need horizontal scalability - Your system must scale by adding more servers, not just bigger servers
• You need high availability - Your system must remain operational even when individual components fail
• You're building multi-tenant SaaS - You need to serve multiple organizations with data isolation
• You need real-time processing - You need to process events and data in real-time across multiple services
• You're building microservices - You need independent services that can scale and deploy separately
• You need geographic distribution - You need to serve users across multiple regions with low latency

If any of these apply, distributed systems architecture can transform your platform's scalability and reliability.
