BACK-END DEVELOPMENT
Our deep backend development expertise helps leading SaaS companies create and maintain server-side software to power their usage. From designing architecture, creating APIs to boosting overall performance, we partner and deliver best-in-class solutions.
Key Challenges in Back-End Development
Getting the technical architecture design right is an iterative process that needs continuous adaptation to changing business needs.
Vast amounts of data make ingestion and processing complex. The challenge is to create reliable solutions that maintain data accuracy, consistency without sacrificing speed.
Building data pipelines involves handling diverse data sources with different structures and formats. Managing high volumes of data, ensuring scalability, and maintaining data quality and integrity throughout the pipeline is a challenge for most SaaS companies.
As Saas companies grow in user traffic, scaling backend infrastructure becomes difficult and expensive. They must reduce server maintenance and data storage expenses without sacrificing performance or functionality.
All of these require technical foresight and experience in planning, developing, and rolling out solutions in a systematic fashion.
Build a Software that is
Modular & Extensible
It promotes maintainability & flexibility, allowing easy integration of new data sources. It enables code reusability and adding new functionalities without disrupting the original structure.
Scalable
Handles increasing data and user traffic without compromising performance and functionality by accommodating future growth without significant modifications.
Efficient
Ensures optimal utilization of resources, minimizing server maintenance and backend operational costs and maximizing productivity.
Our Practices and Approach
Developing modular, scalable, and efficient software is a discipline with many ingredients. To address that, we do some of the following:
Design a scalable architecture
Evaluate the product needs, do thorough tech stack research, and engage in design discussions and technical workshops. Create detailed design documentation for developers to analyze the business requirements.
Write high-quality code
Write clean, modular, and optimized code, not once but every time. Follow patterns, refer to playbooks in case of dependencies, and get every line of code peer-reviewed. Perform user acceptance testing before moving to production.
Plan well and in advance
Break requirements into smaller pieces, write thorough user stories, and clearly define what’s done. Take ownership of tasks, and discover risks and dependencies. Failing fast helps us to inform stakeholders and re-prioritize requirements.
