Why Invest in Platform Quality?

Resilient backend systems improve product iteration speed, reduce incident fatigue and create measurable customer experience uplift.

High Throughput
Async patterns, connection reuse & tuned data access minimize latency at scale.
Predictable Reliability
SLO/SLA alignment, graceful degradation & progressive rollouts reduce incident impact.
Secure by Design
Shift-left scanning, threat modeling & principle-of-least-privilege enforcement.
Future Ready
Composable modules & automated tests accelerate safe iteration & experimentation.

service-example.ts

// Example typed service handler
interface CreateOrderInput { items: { sku: string; qty: number }[]; userId: string }
interface OrderResult { id: string; status: 'CREATED'; total: number }

export async function createOrder(input: CreateOrderInput, deps: { pricing: any; db: any; events: any }): Promise<OrderResult> {
  const pricingDetails = await deps.pricing.priceItems(input.items)
  const total = pricingDetails.reduce((sum: number, p: any) => sum + p.extended, 0)
  const order = await deps.db.orders.insert({ user_id: input.userId, total, status: 'CREATED' })
  deps.events.publish('order.created', { id: order.id, total })
  return { id: order.id, status: 'CREATED', total }
}
