The Challenge
To secure funding and validate the market, Strategio required a robust Business Intelligence platform capable of processing diverse commercial datasets and generating custom analytical reports. The goal was to build a secure, highly scalable Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in under 12 weeks while maintaining top-tier architectural standards.
Architectural Approach
We adopted a Clean Architecture framework with a modular design to segregate domain logic from external interfaces. This isolated the core data analytics engine from database and API delivery layers.
- Domain Centric Design: Kept the business logic pure, facilitating rapid feature iterations without breaking existing features.
- Hybrid Backend Pipeline: Combined Node.js (for handling user authentication, session management, and dashboard orchestration) with FastAPI (optimized for mathematical computations, product classification algorithms, and report generation).
- Optimized Data Layer: Utilized PostgreSQL with indexes designed for high-frequency queries and multi-tenant isolation, ensuring data boundaries between different client organizations.
Key Outcomes
- Award-Winning Performance: The resulting MVP proved so stable and feature-rich that it won the Startup Perú grant.
- Cost-Efficiency: Minimized AWS infrastructure overhead by implementing serverless worker patterns and caching strategies, keeping monthly run costs under $50 during the initial traction phase.
