Liferay Architecture Design
Liferay Architecture Design Services offers comprehensive solutions for designing and optimizing the architecture of Liferay-based applications. These services focus on tailoring the platform’s architecture to meet specific business needs, enhance performance, and ensure scalability. From initial concept to implementation, Liferay Portal Architecture Design Services provides strategic guidance in crafting a robust and efficient architecture, considering factors such as security, integrations, and user experience.
- System Architecture
- Database Architecture
- Deployment Architecture
- Integration Architecture
Key activities under our Liferay Architecture Design Services
We write high-level and Low-Level Design documents for Liferay Portal Architecture which explain System components and the relation between them, High availability and disaster recovery plan, Security Configuration, load balancing and Clustering Configuration, Database Backup and Recovery, User and Role Management, Site and Page Structure, Content Management, Integration with External Systems, Cache Management, Deployment plan, Server details and Versions, Monitoring and Analytics.
Understand Business Goals
- Understand the business goals and user requirements for the Liferay Portal.
- Identify key features, functionalities, and integration needs.
- Discussions with stakeholders to gather insights and expectations
- Discuss user personas, user journeys, and specific use cases.
- Understand Non-functional requirements
System Components & frameworks
- Define system components like Frontend frameworks, Application Servers, Database Servers, Network Infrastructure, Load Balancers, Firewalls, Integration and External systems, Monitoring and Management Tools, Binary content storage systems and Cloud Services.
Protocols & Communication Channels
- Define protocols and communication channels for web communication (HTTP/HTTPS), API Protocol ( REST, SOAP ), TCP/IP, Database Connectivity Protocols (JDBC, ODBC), WebSockets, SSL/TLS, Message Formats (JSON, XML)
Leveraging Liferay’s OOTB capabilities against the Use Cases
- Against use case requirements define Liferay’s OOTB various features like web content, user management, categories, blogs, sites, page search, workflow, and integrations.
Draw Diagrams
- Draw a Physical integration diagram to provide a visual representation of System Components and communication between different systems by protocol or communication channels, high availability, clustering, and disaster recovery options.
- Draw a Sequence Diagram to Illustrate the flow of messages or events between components, helping to understand the sequence of operations.
- Draw a Use Case Diagram to Illustrate how users interact with the portal and the corresponding system responses.
- Draw a Deployment Diagram to Illustrate how different modules and components will deployed
- Draw a Workflow Diagram to highlight the sequence of steps involved in specific processes or workflows
System Testing
- We will write different test scenarios for the portal.
- Unit test cases will be written.
- Code quality will be measured using SonarQube.
Monitoring and Analytics
- Define monitoring tools to track the performance and usage of the Liferay portal.
- Define analytics for understanding user behavior.
- Various audit events will be captured
Custom Development & Customization
- Define custom modules to support requirements that are not supported by Liferay OOTB features. Here we will write how Liferay module development, API development, and Liferay front-end implementation will be done.
- We will also define Liferay customization to implement various business requirements.

I’ve been working with Bhavin Panchani for about a year on our company’s Liferay-based customer portal. Bhavin is always very professional and organized, but also communicative and easygoing. He is super knowledgeable with the Liferay platform, but also works on other technologies that we use with no problem at all, and in a timely manner. I can see that he really cares about our product and is directly responsible for its success. Thanks IGNEK & Bhavin!
Working with an Indian company for a project was new for me, so I didn’t knew what to expect concerning the time differences, the possible language barrier/ communication differences. In a project, you always need to know each other at the beginning, but after the first weeks of communicating back and forth concerning our idea, the project went off. With several different expertises that IGNEK has to offer, your project is in good hands in a timely matter. Not only the developing side (we uses liferay as a platform), but also the designs are smooth. In our project, which is quite a niche, IGNEK proves to think with you to provide the best solution. I would definitely recommend IGNEK for your liferay solution.
Working with IGNEK is smooth like work with internal team. They are punctual, professional with realistic time estimation and pricing. I had no feeling that there is 4 hours in time difference while working with them. My full recommendation.
