Client requirement

Truck-4 needed a microservices marketplace for commercial rentals — OTP auth, truck management, secure file uploads, third-party maps/email, compliance tooling, and Kubernetes-ready scale.

Challenges & solutions

What we inherited, and exactly how each constraint was resolved.

Challenge
Dependent microservices needed reliable communication without tanking response times.
Solution
We used REST APIs plus async messaging with RabbitMQ between services.
Challenge
Uploaded files risked malware that could crash servers or corrupt data.
Solution
We scan uploads in real time with ClamAV before they are accepted.
Challenge
The platform had to scale services and data as demand grew.
Solution
We ran services on Kubernetes for independent deploy and demand-based scaling.
Challenge
Auth had to stay fast and trustworthy when upstream pieces failed.
Solution
We added fallbacks and monitoring so verification stays available during disruptions.
Challenge
Integration testing across many services needed early failure detection.
Solution
We used SonarQube and Azure DevOps CI pipelines to catch issues across the lifecycle.
Challenge
Deploying many services onto Kubernetes clusters was operationally heavy.
Solution
We automated deploys with Azure DevOps and Helm charts for repeatable releases.
Challenge
Latency and uneven performance missed response-rate targets.
Solution
We added caching, query optimization, and profiling to remove bottlenecks.
Challenge
Keeping data consistent across services was complex under load.
Solution
We used eventual consistency patterns and distributed transactions where needed.
