In this thesis, we present Coffee Route, a scalable microservices-based platform that optimizes the coffee supply chain from the farm to the end consumer. By leveraging React for the user interface and Node.js/Express for the backend, as well as concurrently utilizing MongoDB and PostgreSQL, the system achieves both flexibility and reliable data management. Each microservice (e.g., farmer management, inventory tracking, roasting, e- commerce) operates independently, facilitating maintenance and upgrades without disrupting the rest of the platform. This solution enhances traceability by providing real-time updates and enabling more effective communication among farmers, roasters, and consumers. Additionally, it reduces errors arising from manual processes and expedites the fulfillment of online orders, contributing to a smoother customer experience. By consolidating critical data into a unified infrastructure, Coffee Route adds commercial value for businesses of all sizes, increasing transparency and promoting sustainable practices. The study demonstrates that a microservices architecture constitutes an innovative approach for the coffee supply chain, combining the system’s expandability and resilience with the ability to adapt swiftly to market demands.
