|
||
|
|
→ Publish events
|
||
|
|
→ Analyze reason
|
||
|
|
→ Auto-regenerate (if applicable)
|
||

## Lessons Learned
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### What Went Well
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Reusing Proven Patterns**: Leveraging BaseAlertService and existing scheduler infrastructure accelerated development
|
||
|
|
2. **Service-Level Caching**: Implementing cache in Forecasting Service (vs. clients) was the right choice
|
||
|
|
3. **Comprehensive Documentation**: Writing docs alongside code ensured accuracy and completeness
|
||
|
|
4. **Timezone Helper Utility**: Creating a reusable utility prevented timezone bugs across services
|
||
|
|
5. **Parallel Processing**: Processing tenants concurrently with timeouts proved robust
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Challenges Overcome
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Timezone Complexity**: Required careful design of TimezoneHelper to handle edge cases
|
||
|
|
2. **Cache Invalidation**: Needed smart TTL calculation to balance freshness and efficiency
|
||
|
|
3. **Leader Election**: Ensuring only one scheduler runs required proper RabbitMQ integration
|
||
|
|
4. **Error Isolation**: Preventing one tenant's failure from affecting others required thoughtful error handling
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Recommendations for Future Work
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Add Integration Tests**: Comprehensive test suite for scheduler workflows
|
||
|
|
2. **Implement Load Testing**: Verify system handles 100+ tenants concurrently
|
||
|
|
3. **Add UI for Plan Acceptance**: Complete operator workflow with in-app accept/reject
|
||
|
|
4. **Enhance Analytics**: Add ML-based plan quality scoring
|
||
|
|
5. **Multi-Region Support**: Extend timezone handling for global deployments
|
||
|
|
6. **Webhook Support**: Allow external systems to subscribe to plan events
