FinTech Planning Ecosystem
Building high-security financial planning tools with Next.js and AWS Serverless
We developed a sophisticated financial planning application designed to handle complex calculations and sensitive data using a modern, cost-efficient serverless stack.
The goal was to build a highly responsive, secure platform that allows users to project long-term financial goals. The client required a solution that could scale to thousands of simultaneous users without the overhead of managing traditional servers.
By utilizing Next.js for the frontend and AWS Lambda with Node.js for the backend, we achieved a 'Pay-as-you-go' cost model. This architecture ensures high availability and bank-grade security while delivering a lightning-fast user experience through Server-Side Rendering (SSR).
The Story
Traditional financial tools often feel sluggish and look outdated. Our client wanted to disrupt the market with a tool that felt as fast as a local app but lived in the cloud. We chose a serverless path to ensure that as their user base grew, the infrastructure would scale automatically without a single minute of downtime or manual intervention.
Our Approach
We leveraged a 'Security-First' approach, utilizing AWS Cognito for encrypted identity management and DynamoDB for low-latency data retrieval. The frontend was optimized using Next.js App Router to ensure that complex financial charts and tables loaded instantly, providing a premium feel to the end user.
- Developed a high-performance frontend using Next.js and Tailwind CSS for a responsive, modern user experience.
- Architected a scalable backend using Node.js and AWS Lambda to handle compute-heavy financial logic.
- Implemented AWS Cognito for secure, multi-factor authentication and data privacy compliance.
- Utilized Amazon DynamoDB for ultra-fast, predictable performance at any scale of user data.
- Automated deployments using AWS Amplify and GitHub actions for a seamless CI/CD pipeline.
