The Challenges

before-ring

Large File Transfer

The application was not supposed to impose limits on file size and type. That means video of any size should be uploaded or downloaded without any performance issues. It was quite challenging to craft the functions without slowing down the performance. Plus, the client required to keep of download status and upload status in terms of any failure. And it should resume as the issue gets resolved.

With years of experience in handling large file uploads and downloads, the developers crafted robust file transfer modules. Moreover, the QA professionals tested it rigorously against all the possible issues like video files, 100 MB files etc. The developers fixed those issues and finally came up with a robust module that can work on any sized and typed file transfer. Plus, the developers crafted a functionality which tracks uploads and downloads process. So in case of incompletion of the process, it saves the status. Next time whenever users logs in the application, it asks the user to retry the upload or download, and resume the process from where it stopped.

The Challenges

Multiple File Transfer

If any user wants to see the documents, the view should look and function like windows explorer. Plus, it should be equipped with breadcrumbs, too. In addition to that, it should show the documents category wise and product wise.

Without the support of third-party software, Brainvire’s excellent developers developed a special API that not only displays it in windows explorer format but also provides category wise breadcrumbs to get access in between.

Chat & Video Thumbnail without 3rd party tools

The chat happens at mobile app was needed to be shown as comments at the website. So in this scenario using chat APIs such as XMPP or socket were not feasible solutions. Plus, the application required to display the video thumbs but without the use of 3rd party tools. It was quite challenging for the developers to create the video thumb with the native API.

After certain discussions and research, the developers could finally develop a module with the help of native API that takes a part of the video and present it in a manner of Video Thumb. In addition to that, the developers created own native chat API that presents chat content in attractive format same like leading chat applications.
