Problem
Time-consuming and expensive paper documentation
The client has a big set of microservices and data storages communicating with each other within different projects.
These projects are in finance, property, healthcare, renewable energy, and charity domains. The law requires the client to back up every operation by a contract, letter, documents, etc. Handling this task manually is extremely difficult and costly.
The main idea of the client was to create a cloud-based automated system for creating and forming request/response letters for their clients that has a similar structure, but different filling. The system has to use internal company services for collecting data, processing it, and forming a letter based on it.
Solution
A high-concurrent solution that automatically generates the company’s documents
Once the client started the collaboration with Euristiq, our engineers became engaged in several projects. An automated documents generating solution is one of them and had a top priority for the client.
We started with decisions on the technical stack and requirements elaboration. The solution had to use a list of internal services of the company to collect data from different sources and form differently structured letters, documents, and even brochures. This data is of a very sensitive nature as it contains private financial information, that’s why we paid additional attention to the security of a solution. The solution can boast a fully designed server architecture developed by Euristiq engineers.
Created documents are stored in the cloud and can be accessed at any time by the user: to send, to print, or just to check. Printing companies can easily extract these generated files from the specific folder in cloud storage – they have access only to the documents that they should have access to.
During the development we faced a few difficulties: we had to create a solution to generate pdf files with images, tables and dynamic data using the free tools. That was a bit challenging as not every tool is perfect and has everything we needed at that time. So it has taken a while to find the one that fully covers our needs.
