Furniture E-Commerce Platform
Dual-application platform featuring MongoDB ACID checkout transactions, atomic inventory updates, cursor-based Redis cache invalidation, and a catalog-grounded AI shopping assistant.
Designed and built an end-to-end e-commerce platform with decoupled customer storefront and seller/admin applications. Emphasized transactional consistency, idempotent payment workflows, non-blocking cache synchronization, and natural-language product discovery.
Architecture & Implementation Depth
Core distributed systems patterns, database transactions, and cache consistency.
Architected decoupled customer and seller/admin portals with clean domain services, repository-based data access patterns, and strictly validated Zod API boundaries across both layers.
Guaranteed zero inventory overselling using MongoDB multi-document ACID transactions with atomic bulkWrite stock decrements. Combined with idempotent Razorpay HMAC-SHA256 webhook processing to prevent double fulfillment.
Engineered an Upstash Redis caching layer with cursor-based, non-blocking SCAN invalidation, ensuring immediate catalog synchronization between seller updates and the customer storefront without server blocking.
Implemented natural-language search, fuzzy query matching, autocomplete, and a catalog-grounded Groq AI assistant that provides contextual furniture recommendations based strictly on available database inventory.
