NextGram
Full-stack social media platform with image/video sharing, likes, comments, and user profiles. Implements Redis caching for 77% performance improvement.
Project Overview
A social media experiment focused on high-performance data delivery. NextGram replicates core social features while pushing the boundaries of caching. Using Redis as a write-through cache, the platform handles high traffic with minimal database overhead.
Challenges Faced
1
Implementing real-time activity feeds with high consistency.
2
Managing large-scale media uploads and transformations via Cloudinary.
3
Reducing database read latency for frequently accessed user profiles.
Key Results
- Achieved 77% faster load times using Redis write-through caching.
- Scaled to handle 100+ concurrent test users without performance degradation.
- Integrated secure media processing and delivery.
