  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Thymeleaf

    Thymeleaf is a modern server-side Java template engine for both web and standalone environments.

  • Thymeleaf is used for serving frontend resources in this service, and it has cache enabled for static resources based on content. Something like the following properties:

  • spring-data-mongodb

    Provides support to increase developer productivity in Java when using MongoDB. Uses familiar Spring concepts such as a template classes for core API usage and lightweight repository style data access.

  • The downstream service handles the request in a similar manner, but in this case, it interacts with MongoDB, which also uses a connection pool managed by Mongo Java Driver behind Spring Data MongoDB.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • distributed-load-testing-on-aws

    Distributed Load Testing on AWS

  • In this case, we chose to use this solution from AWS for load testing just because the setup is very simple and we already had compatible jmeter scripts ready for use, but I’d rather suggest using distributed Locust instead for better reporting and flexibility.
