A fully Dockerized, Kubernetes-ready, and highly scalable web application for kaarmicjourney.com, an astrology and clinical hypnotherapy platform. The platform supports secure user profiles, administrative content, and seamless multi-channel communication, including a critical Multi-Channel Messaging Service to synchronize secure in-app chat with WhatsApp Business Chat.
The architecture is designed for security, massive scalability, and complex multi-channel operations.
| Component | Technology | Role & Responsibility |
|---|---|---|
| Frontend | React (Functional Components, Tailwind CSS) | Responsive UI, state management, and consumer of both REST (APIs) and WebSocket (Chat). |
| Backend | Java (Spring Boot 3+) | Core business logic, security, payments, and the central Multi-Channel Messaging Service. |
| Database | MongoDB Atlas | Primary database for profiles, bookings, chat logs, and content (configured as a Replica Set for HA). |
| Containerization | Docker & Docker Compose (Dev) | Local development and container image building. |
| Orchestration | Kubernetes (K8s) & AWS ECS/DigitalOcean | Orchestration for production scaling and high availability (HA). |
| Messaging | WhatsApp Business API | Integrated via the Java backend for two-way chat synchronization. |
| Security | Spring Security | Enforces JWT authentication, input validation, and best practices. |
The platform supports all original features while adding complex multi-channel communication and secure asset retrieval.
