Key technologies for building highly available inventory systems
For the characteristics of e-commerce scenarios, Chef provides the following solutions:
- Data Modeling Strategy: Enter the "Create an e-commerce backend that supports SKU management" prompt and the system will automatically generate it:
- products table (with quantity field)
- Orders table (with status enumeration)
- Auto-associative Transaction Processing API
- Inventory set-aside mechanism: Configure atomic operations in background tasks:
const success = await db.table("products")
.filter(q => q.id === productId && q.quantity >= orderQty)
.update({ quantity: q.quantity - orderQty }) - Real-time Early Warning System: Set through the scheduler:
- Create a daily inventory check task in /dashboard/scheduler
- Setting low inventory thresholds to trigger email notifications
- Binding a useQuery subscription to the Inventory Kanban component
