🧠 Architecture Patterns & Design

Microfrontend Architecture

The platform uses Webpack Module Federation with a shell-based orchestration pattern:

• Host Application (Shell): Manages routing, authentication, shared layout
• Remote Applications: Store, Checkout, Account, Admin - independently deployed
• Shared Packages: Common authentication, UI components, injection utilities
• Runtime Loading: Remotes loaded dynamically at runtime (no compile-time dependencies)
• Development: Each micro-app runs on separate port (4200-4204)
• Production: All apps bundled together, remotes served from /remotes/ directory

Benefits:

• ✅ Independent deployability per micro-app
• ✅ Team autonomy (each team owns a micro-app)
• ✅ Technology flexibility (each remote can use different versions)
• ✅ Better performance (lazy loading of remotes)

Backend Architecture

Each microservice follows Clean Architecture with CQRS Pattern:

Controllers/Endpoints → MediatR Pipeline → Commands/Queries
                                              ↓
                                    Command Handlers / Query Handlers
                                              ↓
                                         Domain Layer
                                              ↓
                                      Infrastructure (Repositories, Services)
                                              ↓
                                        Data Layer

Communication Patterns

1. Synchronous: REST APIs, gRPC (Basket ↔ Discount)
2. Asynchronous: RabbitMQ with MassTransit (Event-driven)
3. Frontend-Backend: REST APIs with JWT authentication

Security Architecture

• Authentication: JWT tokens via Identity Server 4 + Azure AD B2C
• Authorization: Role-based access control (RBAC)
• Service-to-Service: Istio mTLS for encrypted communication
• Data Security: Encryption at rest (S3, databases) and in transit (HTTPS/TLS)

🏢 Business Features

• Trivy for container image scanning
• CodeQL for static code analysis
• Dependency Scanning via GitHub Dependabot
• SBOM Generation for supply chain security

Data Protection

• Encryption at Rest: All databases encrypted
• Encryption in Transit: HTTPS/TLS for all connections
• S3 Bucket Policies: Restricted access to product images

📊 Monitoring & Observability

The platform follows the 3 Pillars of Observability:

1️⃣ Logs (ELK Stack)

• Serilog: Structured logging in backend
• Elasticsearch: Log aggregation and indexing
• Kibana: Log exploration and visualization
• Access: Kibana at localhost:5601

2️⃣ Metrics (Prometheus & Grafana)

• Prometheus: Metrics collection (15-second scrape interval)
• Scrape Targets: API servers, Node Exporter, Kubernetes components
• Grafana: Custom dashboards for application and infrastructure metrics
• Access:
  • Prometheus at localhost:9090
  • Grafana at localhost:3000

3️⃣ Traces (Jaeger & Istio)

• Istio/Envoy: Automatic trace collection (service mesh layer)
• Jaeger Collector: Trace aggregation
• Jaeger UI: Trace visualization and analysis
• Access: Jaeger at localhost:16686

Service Mesh Visualization

• Kiali: Real-time service topology, traffic flows, and health
• Access: Kiali at localhost:20001

Health Checks

All services expose health check endpoints:

• /health - Service health status
• /health/live - Liveness probe
• /health/ready - Readiness probe

⚙️ CI/CD Pipeline

GitHub Actions Workflows

1. CI Pipeline (Continuous Integration)

Triggered on: Pull requests, pushes to main

Steps:

1. Code Quality

   • Build .NET 8 backend
   • Run backend unit tests (with Cobertura coverage)
   • Run frontend tests via Nx affected
   • ESLint and Prettier

2. Security Scanning

   • Trivy: Container vulnerability scanning
   • CodeQL: Static code analysis (C#, TypeScript)

3. Docker Build

   • Build all 5 microservice images
   • Multi-arch support (linux/amd64)
   • Cache integration for speed

4. Integration Tests

   • Start service containers (Redis, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, RabbitMQ)
   • Run integration test suite

5. Deployment Validation

   • Helm chart linting
   • Kubernetes manifest validation

2. CD Pipeline (Continuous Deployment)

Triggered on: Tags, manual workflow dispatch

Steps:

1. Build & Push to ECR

   • Build 5 microservice images
   • Push to AWS ECR
   • Scan images with Trivy
   • Tag: latest, git sha, version

2. Deploy to EKS (per environment)

   • Environment-specific deployment (dev/staging/prod)
   • Helm upgrade --install for databases
   • Helm upgrade --install for services
   • S3 configuration and image migration
   • Health checks and smoke tests

3. Docker Pipeline

Triggered on: Pushes to main/release branches

Steps:

• Build 5 microservice images
• Publish to GitHub Container Registry (GHCR)
• Automatic semantic versioning
• Security scanning with Trivy
