Facet Search
Product/Project Manager, Business Analyst, 4 Backend developers, 3 QA Engineers, DevOps Engineer
ELK, Java 11, Kotlin
Problem
The search is carried out by the partner’s SaaS solution, in which the availability of all sales channels directly depends on the search.
The frequency of updating the search index is once a day, which significantly increases the time for new products to appear on the site and in other channels.
Boxed solutions lead to the Vendor Lock-In problem, unlike solutions built on open-source technologies.
Solution
Improved analysis of the search query for the presence of phrases typed with an incorrect layout. Extracting product attributes from a search query (conceptual search). Improved indexer based on In-Memory solution with support for partial indexing. Collection of statistics on search results based on ELK.
The team achieved an increase in the average check for sessions from a search by 1.5%, the share of sessions using the search by 7 percentage points.

Flexible work formats
For convenience we offer several standard models of work with our clients.
Time and material
Model works best when you don’t have a clear scope and want to be deeply involved in the development process.
Choose it if:
- you want to follow agile methodologies
- you need to be flexible due to quickly changing requirements and taste hypothesis time to time.
- you don’t have strict deadlines
All of that doesn’t mean you go in blind. Just like in the fixed-price model, you start your cooperation with planning, but only for the upcoming week or two. So instead of determining and fixing requirements for the whole project, you start fast and can further adjust the scope and priorities.
Fixed-capacity
This model focuses on ensuring the efficiency and velocity of the team. To achieve this, the supplier must ensure that different skill sets of members are assigned to a development squad to effectively deliver the project.
Choose it if:
- you want to follow agile methodologies
- you would like to have a fixed budget for a certain period, but don't have a clear idea on the defined scope of work or specifications
- you understand further support steps and define continued predictable costs
We need to work with the client to clarify the scope of work and prioritize the backlogs before the next iteration starts. As the project progresses, it allows the client to mold the project along the way to take advantage of newly released features.
