Scalable Auction Platform, a comprehensive system designed and developed as part of a thesis project. This project focuses on building a transparent bidding platform for service auctions, implementing microservices architecture, and adhering to clean architecture principles.
The platform leverages microservices architecture to achieve scalability, maintainability, and flexibility in handling service auctions. Clean architecture principles are followed to ensure separation of concerns, making the system modular and easy to extend.
