About This Project

Build a Real-World
E-Commerce Empire

This is not a toy project. You will build ShopHub — a full-scale e-commerce platform that handles everything from user authentication to payment processing, inventory management, and real-time analytics.

Students architect this using microservices patterns, implement CQRS with MediatR, set up Redis caching layers, and deploy via Docker containers on AWS ECS. The result? A portfolio piece that impresses senior engineers.

By the end, you will have handled real-world challenges like race conditions in inventory, idempotent payment processing, distributed tracing with Jaeger, and automated CI/CD with GitHub Actions.
