About Pingin.Social<\/h3>\n

Pingin.social is an upcoming startup in the domain of contacts management. It is started with an aim of connecting the professionals and communities across the globe, to perform smarter network management. It enables users to exchange business cards with their connections, exchange views on real time chats and update contact details like email, phone numbers and even social handles.<\/p>\n

The Challenge<\/h3>\n

Like many startups across the world, developers at Pingin.Social recognised the convenience provided by Parse platform to build a rapid and scalable solution which they could rely upon. However, the announcement from Parse to shut its operation was a shock to them as well. Even though Parse had given the path for migration, it was an uphill task to evaluate the different options, build infrastructure in cloud and migrate to it. The team needed to build an infrastructure with minimum latency, which would be highly available, would not restrict the number of APIs served per minute.<\/p>\n

Pingin wanted to augment their app development team with Cloud experts who could migrate the backend and help their app development team during and after the migration.<\/p>\n

The Solution<\/h3>\n

Mobisoft cloud team evaluated various options for hosting the Parse Server. The traffic to the app was divided equally in both sides of the Greenwich line. Therefore, Europe was the best region to host the database. However, MLab (the hosted MongoDB service provider) does not have presence in Europe. Considering the speed requirements, it was futile to keep the servers in US just because there was no frontline hosted MongoDB service provider in EU region. Once the PAAS option was out of the way, we moved to AWS as it is the most trusted brand among the Cloud Service Providers, and also because Mobisoft is an APN partner with AWS which allows our clients free access to AWS Support.<\/p>\n

We decided to host the solution on EU region of AWS.<\/p>\n

Parse migration to AWS (Amazon Web Service)<\/h3>\n

The final infrastructure of the solution involved: <\/b><\/p>\n

3 node replica set for MongoDB<\/p>\n

2 nodes for Parse Server<\/p>\n

1 Amazon Load balancer for managing multiple nodes<\/p>\n

2 Security groups (for MongoDB and for Parse Server)<\/p>\n

2 S3 buckets (for storing Parse Files, and other for MongoDB backups)<\/p>\n

We created the infrastructure and installed the necessary softwares to migrate the app. One of the key parts was to migrate Parse files to S3 to avoid any dependency on Parse in future.<\/p>\n

The Glitches<\/h3>\n

Even though the Parse.com works smoothly, their open source counterpart, Parse server is still undergoing rapid changes. There are many bugs which are being resolved and being newly opened. It reflects the newly developed product in a true sense.<\/p>\n

We observed one such bug with the later versions of Parse. We rolled back to previous version without any issue and used the same in our app. Read More<\/a><\/p>\n

Throughout the migration, we worked with Pingin development team to find the solutions at every juncture where they needed help. Our team helps in debugging the issues in the integration as well as any other place where we could help.<\/p>\n

Parse Dashboard was not developed at the beginning of the project, however once it was available, it was integrated in the system.<\/p>\n

Client Benefits<\/h3>\n

Pingin team can not focus on their core tasks of working on features and looking for growth instead of worrying about the future with Parse.com. The early migration also helped them avoid the problem of working with disjointed file sets due to migration. We migrated all the data including Parse files to AWS removing all the dependencies on Parse.com. The final solution is secure, reliable, cost effective.<\/p>\n
