Service
Backend & Microservices
Behind every good product is a back end that stays fast and understandable as it grows. We design modular, well-tested services and APIs that your front ends, mobile apps and partners can rely on.
What we do
What’s included
REST & GraphQL APIs
Versioned, documented APIs with consistent auth, validation and error handling.
Microservice architecture
Services split along real business boundaries, communicating through queues and events.
Nx monorepos
Shared libraries, generators and caching so many services stay maintainable in one repository.
Authentication & authorisation
Role-based access, token flows and identity providers such as AWS Cognito.
Real-time features
WebSockets and live synchronisation for collaboration, tracking and notifications.
Integration layers
Anti-corruption layers and webhooks that isolate you from third-party change.

Good questions
Backend & Microservices: FAQ
When should I choose microservices over a monolith?
Often a well-structured monolith is the right start. We recommend microservices when teams, scaling needs or release cadence genuinely call for independent services.
Can you build the API for an existing front end?
Yes. We design the API around the screens and flows you already have, or evolve it alongside a redesign.
How do you keep many services manageable?
Shared tooling in an Nx monorepo, consistent conventions, automated tests and CI that builds only what changed.
