eCommerce Microservices Project

Welcome to our eCommerce microservices project repository! This project aims to provide a scalable and modular solution for building an eCommerce platform using microservices architecture. Each microservice handles specific functionalities, such as user management, product catalog, order processing, and payment processing.

Introduction

In the modern era of eCommerce, building scalable and efficient systems is crucial to meet the demands of customers and handle high traffic loads. Our project employs a microservices architecture, which allows for greater flexibility, scalability, and resilience compared to traditional monolithic architectures.

This repository contains the source code and configurations for each microservice in our eCommerce platform. Each microservice is independently deployable and communicates with others via lightweight protocols such as HTTP or messaging queues.

Technologies Used

• Spring Boot: Framework for creating microservices in Java.
• Spring Cloud: Provides tools and libraries for building microservices architecture.
• Kafka: Distributed streaming platform for building real-time data pipelines.
• MySQL: Open-source relational database for storing application data.
• RESTful APIs: Communication protocol for inter-microservice communication.
• Git: Version control system for managing source code.
• Spring Security: For securing the application with JWT.
• JavaMailSender: For sending emails.

Microservices Overview

Our eCommerce platform consists of the following microservices:

1. User Service: Handles user registration, authentication, and profile management.
2. Product Service: Manages product catalog, inventory, and product information.
3. Order Service: Processes and manages orders placed by customers.
4. Payment Service: Handles payment processing and integration with payment gateways.
