Project Summary

Unified Infotech built a middleware solution and REST API for a translation company, developing both front- and backend components and a GUI interface. Development was done in Node.js, deployed on Microsoft Azure with MongoDB, and added features such as single sign-on and automated client integrations. The engagement began in mid-2020 and is ongoing, with customers already using the integrations and the client reporting streamlined processes and fast feature delivery.

Key Challenges

Needed a middleware integration with a niche business application but had limited internal development bandwidth
The client lacked internal developers beyond one person, making hiring internally too expensive
The initiative was complex and required external expertise

Project Deliverables

Middleware (front- and backend)
REST API
GUI interface for job requests and file uploads
Infrastructure updates and deployments on Azure
Single sign-on integration

Project Solution

The vendor researched the client's niche business application and built a middleware (front- and backend) that communicates with the main business application, plus a REST API from scratch. They designed and updated infrastructure as needed and deployed components on Microsoft Azure using MongoDB for data storage. They also delivered a GUI for job requests and file uploads, enabled single sign-on, and provided ongoing support and guidance for daily interactions between applications.

Project Outcome

Customers are already using the integrations and interfaces built by Unified Infotech
The integrations have streamlined the process for the client's customers, improving the user experience
The engagement remains in production and is on budget, with rapid feature delivery and proactive problem solving
