MateSel: EKS WebSocket SaaS Proof of Concept Case Study

Background

MateSel is a genetic selection platform that helps livestock breeders optimize mating decisions by balancing genetic gain, diversity, and inbreeding risk through advanced algorithms.
Rambunct built MateSel’s real-time genetic selection SaaS PoC using Amazon EKS with a custom WebSocket infrastructure—enabling interactive genetic recommendations, live updates, and scalable computational architecture for modern breeding programs.

The Challenge

MateSel, a SaaS platform for livestock breeding optimization, was limited by legacy infrastructure that couldn’t support real-time collaboration, scalable compute, or flexible multi-tenant delivery. These constraints hindered interactive genetic workflows, dynamic decision-making, and AI-driven innovation across varied organizational needs.
  • Limited interactivity and collaboration due to lack of real-time communication and live user sessions
  • Infrastructure and scalability constraints during compute-heavy and memory-intensive genetic optimization tasks
  • Inflexible architecture lacking tenant isolation and support for dynamic, AI-powered SaaS delivery
  • Rigid deployment pipelines that restricted adaptability for multi-tenant environments and seasonal demand spikes

Our Solution

The architecture leverages Amazon EKS for secure, scalable genetic algorithm processing. Microservices and autoscaling ensure reliable performance and smooth collaboration across fluctuating workloads.

  • Scalable compute environment using Amazon EKS with optimized node groups, autoscaling, and cluster-level elasticity
  • Microservices design separated WebSocket handling, genetic algorithms, and backend logic for modular, responsive performance
  • Real-time collaboration supported by sticky sessions, session pooling, and health checks across multi-user environments
  • Robust traffic management with ALB handling SSL, WebSocket upgrades, and path-based routing for computation workloads

The Result

The architecture delivered a cutting-edge foundation for MateSel’s future product roadmap, enabling expansion into full-scale SaaS delivery with real-time collaboration and genetic modeling capabilities.
  • Enhanced user experience with 100% improved interactivity, live updates, and seamless multi-user collaboration
  • Faster and reliable performance including 50% quicker genetic computations and 99.9% platform availability
  • Cost and resource efficiency achieved with 65% lower compute costs via autoscaling and optimized resource usage
  • Scalable, secure SaaS delivery supporting multi-tenant isolation and faster innovation through CI/CD pipelines
