SaaS Product Development Mumbai — B2B Software Startup 2026

SaaS Architecture MICS Builds
Multi-Tenancy
The foundation of SaaS — multiple customers (tenants) share the same application but their data is completely isolated:
- Database-level isolation: each tenant's data in separate schema or database
- Application-level isolation: users only see their own organisation's data
- Configuration: each tenant can have different settings, branding, and features
- Pricing tier enforcement: feature access controlled by subscription plan
Technology Stack
- Frontend: Next.js (React) — fast, SEO-friendly, TypeScript
- Backend: Node.js + Express or NestJS for structured API development
- Database: PostgreSQL (relational) + Redis (caching/sessions)
- Authentication: JWT + refresh tokens, SSO option, MFA
- File storage: AWS S3 Mumbai region
- Search: Elasticsearch for product search, document search
- Queue: Bull (Redis-based) for background jobs — email sending, report generation
Cloud Infrastructure (AWS Mumbai)
- ECS Fargate: containerised microservices, auto-scaling
- RDS PostgreSQL: managed database, daily backup, multi-AZ for critical SaaS
- ElastiCache Redis: session management, real-time features
- CloudFront CDN: assets delivered from Mumbai edge
- WAF: protect SaaS from DDoS and web attacks
API Design
- REST APIs: documented with OpenAPI/Swagger
- Webhooks: real-time event notifications for integrations
- Public API: for customers building on top of your SaaS
- Rate limiting: prevent API abuse
