Kanbanchi Architecture
The Kanbanchi application is hosted on the Google cloud platform. The main application is deployed on Google App Engine(GAE) and uses Google Cloud Datastore in the backend.
In addition, there are 2 microservices which perform some individual tasks. These are set up on a Google Compute Engine(GCE).
They are set up separately from the main server so as not to load the main server.
The Kanbanchi tool is implemented as a Single Page Application. So when the application is requested the first time the main page is loaded. All further communication with the server happens via a REST API being invoked by the front end.
Main Server
Implemented in Java and deployed on GAE.
Processes the request, makes appropriate changes to the Kanbanchi file on the user’s Google drive via Google Drive API
Updates the Kanbanchi database hosted on Google Cloud Datastore if required and sends the appropriate response to the client.
Statistics Microservice
Setup using Node.js
Gathers statistics data from the front end via a REST API
Used to provide users with the reports
Comet Microservice
Set up using Node.js.
Provides real-time updates to users.
Sends notifications from the server to clients (user’s browsers) the moment any action has been taken.
