High-performance API platform with microservices architecture, intelligent rate limiting, authentication, and comprehensive monitoring.

High-performance API platform with microservices architecture, rate limiting, authentication, and comprehensive monitoring.

The Challenge

The client needed a high-performance API platform with microservices architecture, rate limiting, and comprehensive monitoring, but their current system couldn't handle the load.

The Solution

Built a scalable API platform using Axum (Rust) and FastAPI microservices with intelligent rate limiting, authentication, and real-time monitoring. The platform handles millions of requests with sub-50ms latency.
