Project Summary

MagnusMinds IT Solution LLP redeveloped an online bookstore’s database and backend to improve search performance, remove errors, and enable expansion into new countries using ASP.NET and SQL. The initial redevelopment project took a few months and reduced search time from around 3–4 seconds to roughly 1.5 seconds, while eliminating many prior errors. The vendor continues to add features and provide maintenance for the site.

  • Need to handle a large database of 10–20 million books and integrate multiple payment gateways

Project Deliverables

  • Integrated frontend HTML with ASP.NET web forms
