solution overview - 1deeppanwala/Trekora GitHub Wiki
Type of Application: Trekora is a cross-platform mobile app that helps users plan and manage their travel itineraries. It integrates multiple travel-related services such as destination search, itinerary management, and booking functionality.
Architecture Style: Microservices architecture for scalability, maintainability, and the potential to integrate multiple third-party APIs (flights, hotels, etc.).
Hosting & Infrastructure: The app will be hosted on cloud services such as AWS (Amazon Web Services) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP) for scalability and reliability. The mobile app will communicate with back-end services via APIs, likely using a RESTful architecture.
Users: Trekora's primary users are travelers looking to plan personal or leisure trips. Users range from casual travelers to more seasoned tourists. The app should be designed with usability in mind, catering to a wide range of technical expertise.
Why This Architecture? This approach offers flexibility in integrating third-party services (APIs), is easier to maintain, and provides room for scaling the app as the user base grows. Mobile apps, combined with cloud-based backends, ensure that the solution is both lightweight and scalable.
