- Our team has implemented visualization of maps, charts, and tables with filters to ensure the smooth operation of big data.
- For users’ convenience, we’ve developed a mobile application with all the features of the desktop product version.
Scaling and Security
- JWT Token was used for user authorization
- HTTP protocols – for security. The framework used in the system is protected from SQL Injection and other types of attacks
Back-end achievements
- DataBase migration from MySql to PostgreSql enabled the team to use the PostGIS
module, a powerful tool for working with coordinates. As a result, the calculation of land fields and their coordinates has become very accurate - PHP-7.4 was used for the smooth transition of the platform to PHP-8.0 to speed up several features. Python and Node.JS microservices were used
