Developmental Challenges
Our team came across the following developmental challenges:
Result:
We used Firebase so that the notifications can be created on FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging). Here, no server coding is required. So, the notifications sent through the Firebase console can be delivered quickly and easily to users. Firebase’s database allows real-time synching of data between all users and any change made is reflected at once. We adopted a cache approach for resolving the background geolocation tracking issue. When the event arrived, we extracted the geolocation information and maintained a global cache to notify other servers. This way, the downstream could further process information as required. We periodically updated the cache & flushed the cache with time-stamped information.
