Technical Architecture & Scalability Planning
Built to Scale. Engineered to Last.
Great products don’t just work today. They’re designed to grow, evolve, and perform under pressure. Our Technical Architecture & Scalability Planning service ensures your platform is built on strong foundations, ready to handle scale, complexity, and change.
About the Service
At Rocket Lab, we bring deep technical experience and a future-facing mindset to every system we design. This service is ideal for teams moving from MVP to scale, modernising legacy systems, or planning complex, multi-platform builds.
We dive deep into your product’s infrastructure needs, performance goals, and growth trajectory to design a technical blueprint that’s robust, efficient, and scalable. From cloud architecture to API design, we ensure your stack is lean, secure, and future-ready.
What We Use
Our approach is tech-agnostic but opinionated. We architect based on what best fits your needs—not what’s trendy.
- Backend & Cloud Infrastructure: Node.js, NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis, Azure, AWS, GCP, Vercel, Firebase
- Microservices & APIs: REST, GraphQL, gRPC, Event-driven architecture
- DevOps & Scalability: Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, Load balancing, Auto-scaling
- Security & Compliance: OWASP best practices, audit logging, rate limiting, encryption-at-rest
- Monitoring & Reliability: Sentry, Datadog, Prometheus, Health checks, SLA planning
Our Step-by-Step Process
Platform & Growth Assessment
We review your current system (or plans) to understand scale goals, bottlenecks, and potential risks.
Requirements Mapping
Together, we define functional and non-functional requirements, performance, uptime, compliance, integrations.
Architecture Design
We architect the core system: infrastructure, database, APIs, microservices, security layers to ensure they are future-proof and scalable.
Tech Stack Validation
We assess trade-offs and validate tech choices against business goals and team capability. No overengineering, just smart decisions.
Scalability Planning
We define how the system will scale: horizontally, vertically, or via modular services. Includes load strategies and redundancy.
Documentation & Roadmap
We deliver clear documentation, diagrams, and a rollout plan. Everything your dev team needs to move fast with confidence.
Why Rocket Lab
We don’t believe in "just make it work."
We believe in making it work now and still work brilliantly at 10x scale.
- We care deeply about reliability, uptime, and user experience.
- We think clearly about complexity, choosing simplicity wherever possible.
- We own the outcome with architecture built to deliver results, not headaches.
- We move fast without cutting corners on the foundations.
Let’s architect something your product and team can grow on.
