Ensure synchronized data within both online fees applications, maintaining an identical structure and data values. Our objective is to enable access to the same data in both applications, while any addition or update of a new fee record in one app should have an immediate impact on the other project.
However, several unique constraints in our situation have made identifying a clear solution less straightforward. Let's delve deeper into this issue and explore potential strategies to achieve this level of functionality. Towards the end, I'll share the solution I've devised for this particular task.
REQUIREMENTS AND CONSTRAINTS:
- To streamline understanding, we're making some modifications to our task scope.
- Our core goal remains synchronized data across both online fees applications.
- These applications are hosted on separate servers.
- Both applications are developed using the Rails framework.
- Both platforms rely on Postgres databases for data storage.
- We have a limited timeframe to implement this functionality.
