About this project

A leading global AgriTech SaaS provider that specializes in enabling data-driven agricultural decision-making through a platform powered by advanced machine learning algorithms. Their core Trial Management (TM) product allows agribusinesses to plan, execute, and analyze field trials via centralized, intuitive workflows, eliminating manual processes and disparate systems. This significantly improves data reliability and accelerates product development cycles. To meet evolving enterprise requirements, the client sought to enhance the platform’s audit trail capabilities and implement multilingual support, initially focusing on Spanish and Portuguese, without disrupting the service for existing tenants.

Solution Overview

Successive Digital collaborated with the client to enhance their multi-tenant, cloud-native SaaS Trial Management platform with advanced audit trail functionality and multilingual support. The subscription-based platform enables agriculture enterprises to streamline R&D field trials through centralized planning, execution, and data analysis on a unified interface.

Enhancements were designed for modularity, tenant awareness, and CI/CD readiness, facilitating seamless, non-disruptive deployment to existing and new customers.

Key Enhancements for SaaS Scalability and Cloud Optimization

Audit Trail Module:
Designed for multi-tenant environments, this module provides configurable access controls, enabling each tenant to securely maintain tamper-proof, time-stamped logs of user actions, data changes, and system events—ensuring comprehensive traceability and regulatory compliance.

Internationalization (i18n):
Implemented with the Localization tool and integrated Jenkins CI/CD scripts, Spanish and Portuguese language support was delivered as tenant-configurable feature flags. This allows dynamic language enablement per customer without requiring code redeployment or service downtime.

User-Centric Enhancements:
Self-service UX improvements, such as frontend prompts capturing change justifications, were implemented to meet global compliance standards while maintaining an intuitive and consistent user experience across roles and regions.

Technical Architecture

Frontend: VueJS – scalable, dynamic UI framework designed for SaaS applications
Backend: Java microservices with multi-tenant architecture ensuring isolated tenant data and logic
Database: PostgreSQL with schema-level data isolation per tenant
Cloud Infrastructure (AWS):
- Amazon S3: Secure, durable storage for audit logs
- AWS Lambda: Event-driven serverless functions processing audit events asynchronously
- Amazon SQS: Managed message queues for reliable event handling
- Amazon Athena: Serverless querying and analytics of audit data stored in S3
