  • Improved scalability with horizontal scaling by sharding with ShardingSphere to handle large datasets expectedly of GB-level. Implemented read-write splitting to perform query-based load balancing.
  • Implemented real-time product search by Elasticsearch, reached second-level new data indexing (< 1s).
