Case Study 01
Designing a Configuration-Driven Admin Application
Challenge
We needed to deliver an internal administration application to manage complex, JSON-based configurations.
The scope included multiple administrative workflows, secure access control, and a deployment setup suitable for both testing and production.
In a traditional build, this type of application typically requires repeated implementation of list and form screens, custom authentication handling, and manual setup of build and deployment pipelines, introducing unnecessary effort and structural risk early on.
Our Approach
Rather than treating the application as a one-off build, we designed it as a configuration-driven system.
We focused on:
-
Defining application behavior and workflows declaratively
-
Centralizing schema definitions, access control, and flow decisions
-
Using a standardized internal application foundation to eliminate repetitive setup
This foundation was part of our proprietary platform capability, Ciyaan, used selectively to reduce repetition while maintaining structural control.
The goal was not just faster delivery, but predictable structure and long-term maintainability.
Outcome
-
The application was delivered with a significant reduction in setup and delivery effort, compared to a conventional custom build
-
Configuration-driven screens eliminated repeated implementation work across multiple workflows
-
In practice, this translated to ~80% reduction in initial engineering effort for this class of internal applications
-
The system established a reusable baseline, making future internal tools faster to deliver without sacrificing structure or control
Case Study 02
Enabling a Multi-Tenant Application Architecture Without Fragmentation
Challenge
A production application needed to evolve to support multiple tenants with differing requirements, while continuing to serve existing users reliably.
Key concerns included authentication flexibility, tenant-specific branding, and the risk of the system becoming fragmented as new requirements were introduced.
The challenge was not adding features - it was introducing variation without losing coherence.
Our Approach
We focused on the architectural decisions that would be hardest to reverse later.
Our approach included:
-
Designing a multi-tenant application model that clearly separated tenant-specific concerns from core system behavior
-
Introducing extensible authentication strategies to support tenant requirements without branching logic across the codebase
-
Implementing a structured theming and branding model to enable controlled customization
-
Refactoring existing patterns to establish a consistent and predictable application structure
The emphasis was on making change deliberate, not reactive.
Outcome
-
The application transitioned to a multi-tenant architecture without disrupting existing functionality
-
New tenant requirements could be introduced without architectural rewrites
-
Authentication and branding variations were handled cleanly within a unified structure
-
Overall system complexity was reduced, making ongoing evolution safer and more predictable
The result was an application prepared for growth without accumulating long-term structural risk.
