The challenge
A monolithic ledger settled payments in nightly batches, limiting new products and making every release a risk to a business that cannot go down.
Our approach
We split the ledger into event-driven services behind a strangler pattern, migrated balances with continuous reconciliation and moved settlement to real time with no downtime.
What we built
- Event-driven ledger services on Kafka with exactly-once settlement
- Continuous reconciliation during a zero-downtime migration
- Real-time treasury dashboards for operations and finance
- Infrastructure as code on Kubernetes with automated rollbacks
Technology
