Leverage sales/order data by collaborating UberEats API and AWS
UberEats is recently increasing their presence under the circumstances. At HANDS LAB, we excitingly introduced a mechanism that collaborates existing customer’s environment and UberEats using its API, in order to automate product registration and sales data acquisition.
【 Customer’s challenging 】
１．Sales data acquisition at real-time
When they received orders, cashier had to register through interfaces both their own and the other dedicated for UberEats. In fact, sometimes both separated order data was puzzled and had difficulty to keep always clear especially at peak time.
２．Less flexiblility when maintaing products data
There were no options to tailor master data of products for individual branches. To meet the customer’s requirenments, the data need to be maintained more granularly and flexible manner. Also the data is subject to be updated frequently since their products were like seasonal goods and often renewed and the stocks fluctuates widely.
【Solutions】
１．Ensured order management at real-time, granuler manner through UberEats Order API that acquires order data after transmitting it by webhook. （It also reduced customer’s effort while partially contributed some operations regarding like picking list.）
２．By utilizing Menu API from UberEats, Enabled individual branches to maintain their products data on their own. An user at a branch is then able to submit data set written in excel, keeping to depend on existing system transparently. It now allows to check items such as registrerd products, or classification of liqueur.
【Architecture and the point】
Implemented serverless architecture based on managed services from AWS. AWS lamabda , S3 are taking part receiving webhook, generating data. Confidential tokens are securely managed in Secret Manager(SSM). Also, we minimized cost increased by some techniques like utilizing existing batch server(EC2).
HANDS LAB provides variety of solutions for challengings in daily operations with AWS.
Well-trained engeneers who also has competence for retail perspective are ready. We are very excited to help you!
