## Challenges

In order to support software that automatically displays product images in the store on the customer’s shopping cart screen, a retail company needs a unified and convenient database to retrieve information.

However, the image database is currently being **distributed to many platforms** with different input methods, making it **difficult to access data & scale up the database.**

## HBLAB's Solutions

Create a database on **Google Cloud Platform (GCP)** and **design an operating system** including:

- Automatically update the database including product code, category, and image link to Database Firestore when photos are uploaded.
- **Create an Admin management page**: grant users, assign permissions, view product list
- Store photos on GCP Cloud Storage
- Automatically connect to the Database and retrieve images and accompanying information.

## Project details

- Used Technologies GCP, Golang, Terraform, Python
- Development Team 1 Infra PM, 1 Developer Golang, 0.2 BrSE
- Duration 1 month

## Results

- The solution’s initial cost is low but still meets the customer’s problem of **database unification & has ability to scale up**.
- The system operates automatically: **from data upload to data retrieval**, which helps to save time, manpower & ensure operating speed.
