PRMG
This is a multimodule application separated in different layers (data, messaging, etc.), which also follows the microservice architecture to get data about vehicles from supporting services. To name a few:
Master data Services – multiple spring boot microservices.
Geostructure – data about countries and types of vehicles.
Sales channel – data about sales channels. Retail, Private, Wholesale, etc.
Process – Reference point tracker, tracks at which stage is the vehicles, until it is sold
