Introduction

The client came up with the startup idea to create a mobile application, which will allow users to find beautiful spots on the map and take cool shots there. One of the challenges was to create a user-friendly and reliable map function that could contain up to 5000 pins on the map. Having deep expertise in map and navigation functions, we proposed using Google products with caching to solve the problem.

We performed a Discovery phase to make application and backend architecture in a way to allow easily maintain, autoscale and supports a decent amount of users and even more API calls. We agreed that the most suitable option would be utilizing the Reactive programming to the full extent with Routers and MVVM architecture. For the backend, we decided to use Parse, since it has autoscaling, no need for DevOps and it’s easy to moderate.
