The backend leverages MySQL (MariaDB) as the primary relational database system, optimized for high availability and performance. To enhance system responsiveness and reduce latency, Redis is employed as a caching layer. Interprocess communication between microservices is managed via RabbitMQ, providing robust and efficient message queuing.

The Admin portal, a key component for managing the system, is developed with Qwik City, a modern JavaScript framework, and styled using Tailwind CSS for a responsive and user-friendly interface. Microservices are containerized and orchestrated using Docker, offering seamless deployment and scalability. AWS infrastructure supports the solution with a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for efficient distribution of static assets and S3 storage for secure and scalable data storage.

The mobile application is developed using Flutter, a cross-platform framework, ensuring a consistent and high-quality user experience across iOS and Android devices. Firebase services are integrated to provide features such as real-time database updates, notifications, and analytics.

The ParkingAround solution prioritizes security and convenience with Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality, allowing users to authenticate seamlessly through Google, Apple, or Microsoft accounts.

The system is designed for interoperability, featuring a fully documented REST API built to OpenAPI 3 (Swagger) specifications, ensuring smooth integration with third-party applications. Additionally, the solution supports specialized interfaces to communicate with industry-specific systems, such as parking gate providers. Current integrations include Skidata, Designa, Triton, and Villa-Pro, enabling automated and secure gate operations.
