Azgomi is a community application that facilitates communication between people in close proximity. It is used for event planning, organizing sporting events, and for businesses to connect with their local communities. Azgomi is expanding globally and is in demand for its unique style of hyper-local community communication and business outreach. The executive statement is to take the local community services global. Venture capital investors want to see rapid growth and the same great experience for new local and virtual communities. The solution concept is to expand the existing service with updated functionality in new regions and hire and train a new team to support these regions in their time zones. The application must scale smoothly and provide clear uptime data. Azgomi's existing technical environment is a mix of on-premises hardware and infrastructure running in Google Cloud Platform. Existing APIs run on Compute Engine virtual machine instances hosted in GCP. State is stored in a single instance MySQL database in GCP. Data is exported to an on-premises Teradata/Vertica data warehouse. Data analytics is performed in an on-premises Hadoop environment. The application has no logging, and there are basic indicators of uptime; alerts are frequently fired when the APIs are unresponsive. Azgomi's investors want to expand their footprint and support the increase in demand. The business requirements are to expand availability of the application to new regions, increase the number of concurrent users that can be supported, ensure a consistent experience for users when they travel to different regions, obtain user activity metrics to better understand how to monetize their product, ensure compliance with regulations in the new regions, reduce infrastructure management time and cost, and adopt the Google-recommended practices for cloud computing. The technical requirements are that the application and backend must provide usage metrics and monitoring, APIs require strong authentication and authorization, logging must be increased, and data should be stored in a cloud analytics platform. The application should move to serverless architecture to facilitate elastic scaling and provide authorized access to internal apps in a secure manner.
