A leading FinTech Services Organization wanted to strengthen its Middleware by exposing the core logic related to Investment Portfolio Management as Microservices. This middle ware Microservices have also been hosted on Azure so that all the up/downstream applications can get an access to this for performing business transactions. There is also be a customer Portal developed part of this project that consumes all of these Microservices to view their portfolio information and sell their assets.
As part of the build, the web application has been divided into 5 parts that includes four 'Web Api microservices' and one 'Customer Login Portal'. The individual components (web apis) provide the required rest-end points and all end-points have been configured and called internally using 'HttpClient' in other microservices and the portal as required. An algorithm has been developed in order to calculate user's investment portfolio's networth.

-
