Acorn-I is an intelligent platform that helps brands and sellers to boost their online presence and increase the return from e-commerce investments. The platform gives users access to Amazon search analytics, real-time performance tracking, well-structured data, advertising, and promotions.
The team of ex-Amazon employees and eCommerce experts founded Acorn-I to provide a practical omnichannel approach to electronic commerce. The Acorn-I core team knows everything about digital advertisement for online sellers. That’s why they decided to combine their shared knowledge and expertise to create a new product that would empower brands.
Therefore, the Acorn-I team mixed a dedicated team of experts with innovative technology solutions and built the best platform for scaling the brand's digital sales channels via data-driven approaches.

The Acorn-I platform was created using a data pipeline built on AWS Lambda functions and AWS Quick Sight to represent data in grids and graphs. The challenge was to build a new solution that would make it possible for the clients to use the system independently without the Acorn-I team's help. The new solution needed to be user-friendly, modern UX concepts, and easy to use. Besides, we enhanced the data pipeline to support more service integrations and be more scalable at a reasonable cost.
Using Angular and Highcharts library, we built a web application with a modern, interactive, and user-friendly UI/UX design. Also, we created a Serverless API for the web app and delivered refactored data pipeline automation through AWS Cloud Development Kit. As a result, the data platform became testable, more reliable, and simple to use. It helped us increase the existing solution's performance 15 times!

We migrated from Serverless Framework to AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) for part of the system called The Data Platform. It allowed us to support the creation of custom resources and AWS Glue tables.
To extend other AWS services with custom logic, we invoked Lambda functions and currently, our solution has 300K+ AWS Lambda invocations per day.
We used the Serverless framework as API for Ignite frontend app - the intelligent platform for eCommerce. Its main purpose is to query data from Snowflake and return it to the frontend. Additionally, we developed an adapter to work with Snowflake.
During development, we faced an issue with code scalability and reusability. As a result, we refactored the problem using OOP concepts and design patterns to be more scalable and easy to support.
TechMagic started the project with a discovery phase to form a product vision. The team consisted of Business Analyst, UI/UX Designer and Solution Architect. After the discovery phase, we onboarded a Full-Stack Engineer, 2 Frontend Engineers and a QA to work on the Acorn-I product.
After one year of active work, the level of engineers has grown. Now the Acorn-I project has 3 Full-Stack Engineers, a QA and a Team Lead from the TechMagic side.
Solution built by the TechMagic team helped Acorn-I to start moving from the consulting business model to the SaaS model. In the nearest future, machine learning capabilities will automate even more tasks, predictions and calculations that are done manually today.
Our input in this project has already increased the performance in 15 times!
