With one of the clients from the healthcare industry, we were facing slow API response time causing bad user experience. Client technology integrates solving the lack of healthcare interoperability with its patient-centered mobile platform, from where patients can engage, communicate and participate in their healthcare across various providers that might be using different PM/EHR/EMR products. The product includes a SaaS platform for healthcare providers to share and communicate patient health information along with its cutting edge point-of-service patient check-in app for waiting rooms. Due to the complex nature of the product, one of the requirements of the product team was to solve this issue without changing a lot of existing code. The client had already evaluated a couple of paid tools that were working great but very costly, so another challenge was to find an open-source tool that can serve the purpose. Hence, we had a two-pronged challenge- Improve performance and reduce cost...

I want to create and host a HTTPS secure static website using AWS S3 bucket, Cloudfront, and Godaddy.  If you are looking for options on hosting that is cost-effective, can scale just in case your site goes viral and is fairly easy to maintain?  and  It's important to host your websites and web apps with HTTPS enabled. here a right architecture for you to host. We will be using AWS S3 for hosting our static website content (will post a separate blog, how to host an Angular application). AWS CloudFront for faster distribution, using AWS certificate manager and finally we will be using our DNS service from Godaddy. (I could have used AWS Route53 but why to pay that extra 50 bucks).  **imp. - because of GoDaddy only allows CNAME for subdomains;  we will do cloudfront distribution for www.myexample.com, and use domain forwarding from myexample.com to www.myexample.com 1. Setup S3 bucket and upload your website content to your bucket.  Just re...

With this growth in number of users buying online, we have also seen eCommerce reaching multiple geography and 100s of thousand product options to sell. It becomes very important for a eCommerce site to strength companies online presence by standing out of crowd and enhancing the customer buying experience .

I read this story of "Old Warwick" today. It brought a smile to my face, and I think it shares a wonderful lesson for every leader to learn. A man was lost while driving through the country. As he tried to reach for the map, he accidentally drove off the road into a ditch. Thought he wasn't injured, his car was stuck deep in the mud. So the man walked to a nearby farm to ask for help. "Warwick can get you out of that ditch," said the farmer, pointing to an old mule standing in a field. The man looked at the decrepit old mule and looked at the farmer who just stood there repeating, "Yep, old Warwick can do the job." The man figured he had nothing to lose. The two men and the mule made their way back to the ditch. The farmer hitched the mule to the car. With a snap of the reins, he shouted, "Pull, Fred! Pull, Jack! Pull, Ted! Pull, Warwick!" And the mule pulled that car right out of the ditch. The man was amazed. He thanked the farmer...
