System Architectures

Architectures that scale

Examine how we engineer high-performance, compliance-ready systems that free organizations from vendor lock-in.

Quick Answer

In short: 6 ERPStack architectures are documented here in full — a real-time fraud detection platform, an NGO field operations and compliance portal, an artisan manufacturing ERP, a GST order-to-cash compliance engine, a public-health data dashboard, and a Meta ads analytics pipeline. Each records the legacy system it replaced, the architecture that replaced it, the stack it runs on, and the measured result. Each study is titled by system rather than by client, and several of the URLs name the client or the project.

What these custom ERP and B2B software case studies cover

6 real ERPStack engagements. Each case study records the legacy system it replaced, the architecture that replaced it, the stack it runs on, and the measured result.

The six architectures at a glance

  • Real-time fraud detection platform — finance, PCI DSS and SOC 2 scope. ClickHouse analytics database, Redis, PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM, Zod, Terraform. 380ms to 48ms at checkout; false positives under 0.1%.
  • Field operations & compliance portal — ngo, GDPR and ISO 27001 scope. Payload CMS on MongoDB Atlas, Next.js, Node.js, AWS, Sentry, RBAC. 41 collections; 98% faster reporting; offline-first.
  • Artisan manufacturing ERP — manufacturing and retail. React, TypeScript, Node.js, MongoDB Atlas, Microsoft Azure, shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS. 500+ artisans; payouts from 3 weeks to under 2 hours.
  • Order-to-cash & GST compliance engine — retail. Next.js, React, TypeScript, MongoDB Atlas, Vercel, REST API. 5 gapless document prefixes; ₹0.00 rounding drift across 4 invoice types.
  • Public-health data dashboard — government and healthcare, HIPAA scope. React, Node.js, PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM, AWS, shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS. 2,500+ clinics; refresh under 10 seconds.
  • Meta ads analytics pipeline — retail marketing analytics. Node.js collectors over a REST API, reconciled against the same brand’s custom ERP. ₹34,721 of spend and 379,676 impressions on 1 daily axis.

Questions about these architectures

Are these real client architectures or reference builds?

All 6 architectures are real engineering engagements, written up from the delivered system rather than from a brief. The write-ups are titled by system rather than by client, but they are not anonymised: several of the URLs name the client or the project. The figures in each study — measured latency, reconciled totals, row counts, collection counts — come from the delivered systems and the client’s own reporting, not from a marketing estimate.

Which of these architectures is relevant to my sector?

6 sectors are covered. Cybersecurity and finance: a real-time fraud detection platform. NGO and non-profit: an offline-first field operations and compliance portal. Manufacturing and D2C retail: an artisan production ERP plus a GST order-to-cash engine. Government and healthcare: a public-health data dashboard over 2,500+ clinics. Marketing analytics: a Meta ads pipeline. Where none of the architectures matches your domain, the underlying patterns usually do.

What technology do these architectures have in common?

TypeScript everywhere, and a database the client owns outright. Across the 6 architectures the recurring stack is Next.js and React on the front end, Node.js services behind a REST API, and either PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM or MongoDB Atlas underneath, deployed to Vercel or AWS. Specialised layers appear only where the workload demands them: a ClickHouse analytics database for fraud scoring, Payload CMS for NGO field operations.

How long does an engagement like these take?

The published architectures ran from a 4-month engineering cycle for the fraud detection platform to phased module delivery on the artisan ERP. ERPStack quotes 6 to 24 weeks by scope: 6 to 8 weeks for a single module, 10 to 16 weeks for a departmental ERP of 3 to 5 modules, and 18 to 24 weeks for a full platform, invoiced against fixed milestones rather than time and materials.
