About Remitter

Remitter is a financial technology company that specializes in providing innovative payment solutions to businesses and individuals. With a mission to streamline financial transactions and improve the overall user experience, Remitter has grown rapidly in recent years. However, as the company expanded its customer base and services, it encountered significant challenges in maintaining the efficiency, scalability, and fidelity of its backend systems.

Remitter’s software platform runs on Microsoft Azure and makes extensive use of the Azure Service Bus as its Cloud Messaging Service. The code base is predominantly written in C#, but when it came to database management systems, Remitter made a strange decision. Remitter chose RavenDB to be their transactional database, and for Azure SQL to be their reporting database.

The Challenge

As the company experienced explosive customer growth, it became evident that the existing systems were struggling to keep up.

The key challenges that Remitter faced included:

Scalability Issues: The existing infrastructure was unable to handle the increased load caused by the surge in customer numbers. As a result, the systems were straining, leading to decreased performance and responsiveness.

Inefficient RavenDB Usage: RavenDB, while an excellent choice for certain applications, was being used inefficiently, leading to suboptimal performance. The database was unable to cope with the growing data volume efficiently.

Security Concerns: Remitter recognized the need to enhance the security of its entire infrastructure to protect sensitive financial data. Security measures were paramount, given the nature of the business.

The Solution

To address these challenges, Remitter looked to AllCode, a trusted technology partner, to revamp its existing systems and infrastructure:

Legacy Codebase Improvement: AllCode initiated a thorough review of Remitter’s legacy codebase. They identified bottlenecks and areas where improvements could be made to enhance system efficiency and scalability.

Database Optimization: To resolve the issues with RavenDB, AllCode implemented strategies for rolling data to prevent the database from growing excessively. Additionally, they migrated relevant data from RavenDB to SQL Server, optimizing data storage and retrieval.

Security Enhancement: AllCode integrated Identity Server to improve the security of Remitter’s infrastructure. This step helped protect sensitive customer information and ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations.

The Results

Enhanced Scalability

The infrastructure changes and optimizations made by AllCode allowed Remitter to handle its rapidly growing customer base more effectively. Scalability issues were mitigated, and the systems could now accommodate increased loads without performance degradation.

Security and Compliance

The integration of Identity Server bolstered the security of Remitter’s systems, ensuring the protection of sensitive financial data. The company was better equipped to meet regulatory requirements and maintain customer trust.

Efficiency and Performance

With the migration of data from RavenDB to SQL Server, Remitter experienced substantial improvements in database performance. Queries ran faster, and the overall system response time improved significantly.

Automation and Stability

Automation through PowerShell scripts and Azure deployments reduced manual intervention, enhancing system stability and reducing the risk of human error. AllCode’s team of developers helped Remitter create a well-automated system.

When our previous mobile application developer left, AllCode’s team came into a tricky situation where the rewrite of our mobile application was not complete. AllCode was able to determine the most expedient path to deploy a new version of the mobile application into the App Store and Google Play. Since our initial deployment to the stores, AllCode has continued to improve our solution by integrating analytics into our backend so we’re now able to see who is using our mobile apps. Our iOS App now has a 5 stars in the App Store. We are very happy with AllCode’s services.

I want to give my compliments to AllCode and the AWS Jumpstart program! One of the most impressive things about AllCode is they were able to get half of our SOW paid with the assistance of the AWS JumpStart program. One day, I submitted a service request to AllCode. As soon as the message was sent out, the phone rang with a voice, ‘Hello, I am an AllCode support engineer…’ After a brief communication, then we were able to get started on our proposal immediately. We’re startup so we greatly appreciated the contribution from AWS!”

“Before working with AllCode, I paid thousands of dollars to web development companies which only resulted in wasted “money and time”. The saying ” three times” is a charm. Well, for us the latter rings loudly true. AllCode’s expertise was exactly what we needed to move forward.”
