This is a repository used for the Distributed Systems course project and for the DevOps course. To be more precise, this repository is the implementation of the backend/API component for the "Property Management System" we had to implement.
The first edition of the project was implemented using the Spring Java framework. You can find the source code for that here. The second version will use the fastapi Python framework and is currently being developed on the main branch.
In conjuction with fastapi we use:
- A Postgres Database
- SQLAlchemy which is an ORM for Python
- Alembic which handles migrations
- Docker with docker-compose
We would also like to expand on the following topics:
- Asynchronous Python methods and Asynchronous database operations
- Deeper understanding of nginx (reverse proxies in general)
- Image storage for future usage
- Docker swarm/Kubernetes
- CI/CD
