Modern e-commerce platform for a specialty coffee brand with integrated payments and CMS.
Srimaccafes is a modern, production-ready e-commerce platform built for a specialty coffee brand. The project demanded a complete solution: a storefront, a payment gateway, an inventory management system, and a content delivery pipeline.
The primary challenge was building a system that could handle high read traffic on the product catalog without overwhelming the MongoDB database. Additionally, a seamless, mobile-first checkout experience was required with reliable payment webhook handling.
The Solution
Implemented a Redis caching strategy for product data, reducing database reads by 80%. Built a robust Razorpay integration with idempotent webhook processing. Used Cloudinary for optimized image delivery and Next.js for server-side rendering to maximize SEO and initial page load performance.
Launched successfully to 100+ users with zero production incidents. Page load time under 1.2s on mobile. Admin panel allows non-technical staff to manage products, orders, and content independently.
