Introduction to the Stock42 Cellular Architecture
What is Cellular Architecture?
Stock42 uses an innovative cell-based architecture instead of traditional microservices. These cells are highly specialized, autonomous units that enhance efficiency and load distribution. With more than 20 cells dedicated to specific functions, our architecture enables effective and flexible management of application infrastructure.
Efficient Inter-Cell Communication
Our system facilitates communication between cells using technologies such as Redis and Kafka to transmit information efficiently. This allows for optimal real-time data management and large-scale asynchronous tasks, ensuring a fast and reliable response under any usage conditions.
Passwordless Authentication
A dedicated cell within our ecosystem is exclusively responsible for managing passwordless authentication by sending access codes via email. This approach not only simplifies the authentication process but also makes it more secure and less prone to human error.
Automatic Scalability and Container Management
Stock42’s cellular architecture is designed for automatic scaling. Each cell is hosted in a container within a monorepo, allowing agile deployments across various cloud environments such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform. The flexibility of our architecture supports limitless expansion, dynamically adapting to the needs of each project.
