Technical Documentation for Team’s Project

Project Overview
The project is designed to handle and manage contact information efficiently within a
microservices architecture. The core objective is to ensure seamless communication
between services and reliable updates to the central contact information repository. This
system leverages Java 8, Kotlin, Spring Boot, and JPA, and follows modern backend
development practices to provide a robust and scalable solution.

Architecture Design
### Microservices Architecture
The project consists of multiple independent microservices, each responsible for specific
functionalities. The key microservices are:
1. Contact Management Service
- Handles CRUD operations for contact information.
- Exposes REST APIs for external systems to interact with the data.
- Validates and formats incoming data before storing it.
2. Queue Listener Service
- Acts as an intermediary microservice.
- Listens to a message queue (e.g., RabbitMQ or Kafka) for updates on contact information.
- Processes and pushes updates to the Contact Management Service.
3. Notification Service
- Sends notifications (e.g., emails or push notifications) to stakeholders whenever a
significant update occurs.
- Integrates with third-party APIs like Twilio or SendGrid.
4. Authentication and Authorization Service
- Ensures secure access to all APIs.
- Implements OAuth 2.0 for user authentication and role-based access control.

Technology Stack
- Programming Languages: Java 8, Kotlin
- Frameworks: Spring Boot (for microservices), JPA (for database operations)
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Message Queue: RabbitMQ (can be replaced with Kafka for higher throughput needs)
- API Documentation: Swagger/OpenAPI
- Version Control: Git (hosted on GitHub/GitLab)
- CI/CD Pipeline: Jenkins/GitHub Actions
- Containerization: Docker
- Monitoring Tools: Prometheus and Grafana
System Workflow
1. Data Ingestion: External systems send contact updates via API or queue. The system
validates, processes, and formats the data.
2. Queue Listening: The Queue Listener Service continuously listens to the message queue
for new updates.
3. Data Persistence: Validated contact information is stored in the PostgreSQL database.
4. Notification: Notifications are sent to stakeholders via the Notification Service.
5. Authentication and Security: All API endpoints are secured using JWT tokens with role-
based access control.

Key Features
- Contact Management: CRUD operations for contacts, including bulk file uploads.
- Event-Driven Updates: Near real-time updates via queue listening.
- Error Handling: Automatic retries for failed queue messages, with detailed logging.
- Scalability: Horizontal scaling for handling millions of records.
- Monitoring and Alerts: Metrics and alerts using Prometheus and Grafana.

Endpoints
### Contact Management Service
- GET `/contacts`: Retrieve all contacts.
- POST `/contacts`: Create a new contact.
- PUT `/contacts/{id}`: Update a specific contact.
- DELETE `/contacts/{id}`: Delete a specific contact.

### Queue Listener Service


- POST `/queue/process`: Process a message from the queue.

### Notification Service


- POST `/notifications/send`: Send a notification manually.

Database Design
### Contacts Table
- id: UUID (Unique identifier for each contact)
- first_name: VARCHAR(50)
- last_name: VARCHAR(50)
- email: VARCHAR(100)
- phone_number: VARCHAR(15)
- address: TEXT
- created_at: TIMESTAMP
- updated_at: TIMESTAMP

Error Handling
- Common Error Codes: 400 (Bad Request), 401 (Unauthorized), 404 (Resource Not Found),
500 (Internal Server Error)
- Queue Listener Failures: Messages are pushed to a dead-letter queue for review and
reprocessing.

Deployment
### Local Development
1. Clone the repository from GitHub.
2. Run `docker-compose up` to start dependent services.
3. Start individual services using your preferred IDE or CLI.

### Production Deployment


1. Build Docker images for all services.
2. Push images to a container registry (e.g., Docker Hub).
3. Deploy using Kubernetes or a cloud provider's orchestration service.
4. Configure monitoring and alerting systems.

Testing
### Unit Tests
- JUnit for backend logic.
- Mock services tested using Mockito.

### Integration Tests


- API tests using Postman or REST Assured.
- Queue tests to validate message processing.

### Load Testing


- Performed using Apache JMeter or Gatling.

Future Enhancements
1. Advanced Search Functionality: Add search filters (e.g., by city).
2. GraphQL Support: Flexible data retrieval via GraphQL APIs.
3. Data Encryption: Encrypt sensitive data (e.g., email, phone) at rest.
4. Multi-Tenancy: Support multiple organizations with isolated datasets.

Contributors
- Team Lead: Supervises the overall architecture and delivery.
- Backend Developers: Implement core functionality and APIs.
- QA Engineers: Ensure the quality of deliverables.
- DevOps Engineers: Manage CI/CD pipelines and deployments.

Conclusion
This documentation outlines the design, implementation, and operational aspects of the
project. It serves as a reference for developers, QA engineers, and DevOps teams involved in
the project. By following this guide, the team can ensure a scalable, secure, and efficient
system for managing contact information.
