# Inderjeet Kaur > Software Engineer | Microsoft Certified: DevOps Engineer Expert. Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate | Profisee Certified: Architect Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/inderjeet Applications 1: For this project, I’m working on scaling the backend of an existing airbnb clone built by another developer. The ultimate goal for this project is to optimize the service to handle at least 100 requests per second and for the database to read and write efficiently from a store of over 10M records. The first phase is to generate and seed 10M dummy yet realistic records into both Postgres and MongoDB. I was able to generate and ingest about 100,000 records in a minute, but the system would crash before completion. The process for MongoDB took about 33 minutes. After refactoring my postgres time and used COPY command with knex, which reduced my time to 11.866 mins. The second phase of the project was focused on optimizing our service for performance in deployment. Before deploying, I ran load tests locally using artillery, New Relic. In comparing query speeds between Postgres and MongoDB. I continue to consider the benefit of both database, as the decision depend largely on priorities of a project. The data for my project was relational and I had denormalized it including redundancy into the dataset and simply brought it down to one table. I did increase the size of the database but simplified all data fetching. I decided to use MongoDB as it was giving me better throughput and latency. It’s throughput was around 388 RPS with 116ms compared to Postgres was 175 RPS. I decided to do server side rendering so that I could decrease the time of my first paint and my throughput went down to 225 RPS but I was able to regain a lot of that time with couple of strategies. First I did connection pooling to increase the number of connection to the database. I also replaced the queries to just raw queries with this I was able to increase my throughput about 76ms. Once I deployed the service to AWS. I load tested my service and proxy with loader.io. My service was able to handle 660 RPS with avg latency of 88ms. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ SL Green Realty Corp.
