Abstract

The exponential appearance of online stores has implied higher market competitiveness and, consequently, companies need to adopt certain strategies to obtain greater prominence and gain clientele. This paper explores an architectural approach to incorporate a recommendation system in online stores, in order to offer a solution to achieve those goals. Developing the recommendation system infrastructure with NodeJS, based on a REST API, and according to microservices architecture concepts, has proven to be very efficient when it comes to managing great volumes of requests and data, and be capable to serve multiple tenants within a short response time. Clustering techniques were also implemented to increase the system’s performance and capability of handling requests.
