Desarrollo de una aplicación web para automatizar los pedidos y reservaciones de la empresa carpas Andina de la ciudad de Ambato utilizando el micro-framework Lumen.

Abstract

The company Carpas Andina, located in Ambato, registered orders and reservations for its products manually, which caused inconveniences in access to information since its storage has done physically and was prone to damage or spoil. Therefore, this curricular integration work aimed to develop a web application using the Lumen micro-framework to automate these records efficiently. Information has been collected through interviews, observation, and document review to gain an in-depth understanding of the internal activities of the business, and the agile SCRUM methodology has been used to develop the web application, identifying and completing 43 user stories and nine technical stories in 9 sprints, with a total duration of 696 hours. The technologies used were the Lumen micro-framework for the backend and the Vue.js framework for the front end. MySQL is used as a database manager. The ISO/IEC 25010 standard was applied to evaluate performance efficiency, analyzing temporal behavior, resource utilization, and capacity. Performance and monitoring tests were carried out, in which the web application obtained 50% in response time and 37.5% in resource utilization, resulting in an overall score of 87.5% in performance efficiency. A scenario with 100 virtual users performing concurrent operations has been simulated to evaluate the capacity using the Apache JMeter tool. The results showed that the application server can handle up to 299,985 requests per minute without degrading its performance or presenting errors.
