PriceKing

App enables user to search products using various media.

The goal of this project is to create a mobile application that will provide best deals for any searched product. The system uses distributed stream processing and analytics tools, which will collect the continuous stream of big data from many mobile users, distributes their product search requests and processes them in parallel to get the best deals for the specific product item. Furthermore, it crunches the searched data from various vendors and filters it based on the criteria specified by the customer. The goal is to create a user centric system with user engagement analytics. Another motivation behind the project is to monitor user-shopping patterns and search history to provide recommendations through notifications. We also plan to create a web portal for small businesses, where they can post their deals and offers, which will be consumed by our services to crunch and provide cheapest deals for our end users.
