Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) is releasing a new ''Track-My-Hike" feature to their mobile app that allows users to track their hiking paths and distance as well as send emergency alerts in case they do not respond for a specific period.
This data is stored and visible from both the mobile app and on their profile in the web store. They expect up to 10,000 users to use this feature per month, with data points being tracked every minute over the average hiking period of 8 hours. 3
Which solution is appropriate for hosting this kind of data?
Heroku is a cloud platform that allows developers to build, run, and scale applications using various languages and frameworks. Postgres is a relational database that can store large amounts of structured data. A custom solution using Heroku and Postgres can handle the high volume and frequency of data points generated by the ''Track-My-Hike'' feature, as well as provide scalability and flexibility for future enhancements.
