Challenges

– Refactor and redesign the outdated user interface enhancing the existing functionality level with brand-new features along with adopting the Blueprint.js library.

– Optimize database load to accelerate the response rate and skyrocket client-facing platform performance by migrating from DynamoDB to PostgreSQL.

– Optimize the server-side response rate performance by adopting Rust for database-related response processing after JavaScript code operations.

– Optimize UI-centered performance by eliminating system stuttering due to large volumes of student-related data management.

– Optimize AWS infrastructure performance to simplify development operations, streamline codebase management, and reduce product maintenance costs with AWS CDK.

Solutions

Full-Featured Platform UI Redesign

Riseapps’ team redesigned the initial product’s user interfaces for both student and university-faced web and mobile applications to streamline the product’s look-n-feel, deliver engaging user experiences, and provide modern navigation flows.

We leveraged Blueprint.js to save the existing functionality level and enhance it with brand-new eLearning functionality that caters to higher education software end-users.

Database Load Optimization

We detected low database load performance which slowed down the initial apps’ response rate and increased data management costs.

So, we conduct migration from DynamoDB to PostgreSQL to accelerate the response rate and skyrocket client-facing platform performance and reduce the database load by times.

List-Related UI Performance Optimization

Riseapps’ team detected low UI performance while processing large volumes of students lists required by most universities to utilize the platform.

We redesigned the pagination by adding an infinite scroll, and optimized the UI codebase for each database record thus it now provides lists in a proper and lightning-fast manner.

AWS Infrastructure Optimization

Riseapps’ team assessed the product’s Amazon Web Services infrastructure and deployment performance and detected high maintenance costs and non-optimized productivity.

We leveraged AWS Cloud Development Kit to simplify development operations, streamline codebase management, and reduce product maintenance costs.

Multi-Factor Authentication Implementation

The Enroly team asked Riseapps to enhance the platform’s security system and audit the data leakage shortcomings.

We conducted a security audit and implemented multi-factor authentication with full compliance to ISO standards to skyrocket data security and avoid data leakage risks.
