Digital bank
Launch a full digital bank and withstand explosive user growth without degrading the payment path and with zero downtime on releases.
The challenge
The team needed to launch a digital bank from scratch and be ready for multiplied user growth without sacrificing payment reliability.
The architecture
We rebuilt the payment path on an event-driven architecture: idempotent operations, an event bus, and real-time anti-fraud. This let us scale processing horizontally and keep latency stable under load.
The impact
In 14 months the bank grew to 2.5M users, peak load grew 8× with no degradation, and releases ship with zero downtime.
