How we Design, Code, build SaaS and Enterprise products
We partner with our customers to bring their product vision to life and to help them successfully take it to market. Our product design and development methodology employs all the best practices and a broad range of experience and expertise to ensure your success in the market.
Key considerations forSaaS and Enterprise applications
The intricacies of developing apps differ significantly depending on the end goal of what the organization wants to achieve from the apps.
Multi-Tenancy
- Involves a single instance of an application serving multiple customers or tenants.
- With Multi-tenancy, developers can create, utilize, maintain a common infrastructure and codebase to provide features across multiple tenants.
- Provides ease of application maintenance
- Security is a key concern, as multiple tenants share same application instances at times. In such scenarious data isolation and security should be primary goals.
- Risk of data loss and privacy issues should be addressed.
- Our development frameworks (Asp.Net Zero and ABP.IO) and architecture provides built-in tenant and data management modules to ensure SaaS application enforces authentication and authorization to provide access to sensitive information and API.
- For SaaS applications, Public facing pages are very critical and require to be highly performant and SEO optimized. Asp.Net Zero and ABP.IO provide a public facing website which highlights product/platform services and provides a gateway into the application portal via login.
- For customers who require secure data isolation and handling of Tenant users, we use Azure SQL Elastic pool, Azure BLOB storage and Key Vault.
Scalability
Modern SaaS applications we build for our customers are cloud-hosted. They should be scalable to handle large user load and allow unlimited users to access the application.
The database keeps increasing along with user transactions, impacting database performance, leading to increased transaction time and poor performance.
SaaS and Enterprise applications, built on latest technologies (ASP.NET Core, Angular) and Azure infrastructures equipped with load-balanced servers, ensure, backend data scales independently and efficiently.
Approaches, tools and methodologies for enhancing scalability of SaaS and enterprise applications
-
Load Testing
-
Azure Load Testing service
-
JMeter based Load Testing
-
SQL Elastic pool for multi-tenant databases
-
CDN
-
Employing SQL Diagnostic tools
-
REDIS caching for improving User interface rendering and performance
Security
Security is a critical aspect of SaaS application. Primarily ensured by SaaS application development companies and cloud infrastructure providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Modern SaaS application architecture ensures your company's data is segregated and accessible only to intended individuals.
Approaches, tools and methodologies for increasing the security of SaaS and enterprise applications
-
Tenant based data isolation
-
GDPR Compliant
-
Provide Audit Logging
-
Log and show all login attempt for users.
-
Password complexity settings
-
Automatic Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection
-
The frameworks used already are VAPT compliant
-
Our developed applications use Entity Framework as Data Access technology. Entity Frameworks use parameterized queries preventing SQL injections by default.
-
The framework accelerators we use are scanned for vulnerabilities with latest version of OWASP ZAP (v2.7.0). This is one of the world's most popular security tools and is actively maintained by numerous international volunteers.
Integration
The Enterprise and SaaS applications we build can seamlessly integrate with other applications through APIs.
We ensure required APIs are available for integration with other SaaS or on-premises applications. The APIs visible to third-party developers allow them to extend the SaaS platform's capabilities.
We can build aggregator platforms wherein tenant can provide services to the parent platform.
How We Build Digital Products For Customers
Hire Tech Team works with GraphQL in ASP.NET ZERO and ABP.IO for querying APIs. GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data.
Customer Engagement Models for product development
- UI First - Frontend development for applications which utilize available APIs and only require modern UI built using Angular
- Backend First - Some customers only require API to be built and hooked into an existing frontend.
- Full stack application with Mobile App creation - Backend APIs as well as Frontend with Mobile app either for Cross platform, Native Android and iOS
- Migration of existing application to Modern Technical stack -App modernisation for Enterprise companies on their path digital transformation journey
Component Driven Development
Elements & Components are reusable, interchangeable building blocks of an User ineterface encapsulating its functionality and appearance. With elements, you build a component which in-turn helps build and interface.
With component driven development, we discovered that it significantly accelerates development process, allows team to work independently and consistently attain a higher level of product quality in shorter timelines.
In CDD approach we provide:
- Component library - Highly useful library for ready use of reusable components within your application.
- Parallel development - Since teams work on one component at a time, it allows you to share tasks between different team members.
DevOps Engineering
Automation with CI/CD pipelines
Our expert DevOps team handles engineering activities such as designing, setting, implementing CI/CD pipelines, build and release cycles. We build load testing into DevOps workflows as a part of automated CI/CD to capture and block performance regressions in early development lifecycle and run unit tests during build and release cycle.
Load testing using Azure load testing service
We incorporate Azure load testing services enabling developers and testers generate high-scale load, run simulations revealing actionable insights on performance, scalability and capacity.
