Summary
Node.js authentication microservice for multiple projects, with REST APIs for registration, login, password reset, profile updates, token issuance, and verification. Uses MongoDB for user accounts and project-specific configs.
Judgment
Built to standardize auth logic across services and avoid re-implementing it for each project. Focused on clear REST APIs and a simple MongoDB schema. Prioritized essential flows, keeping the service minimal, extensible, and easy to integrate. Centralized service with a single MongoDB may cause downtime or scaling limits for all projects, but multi-AZ or multi-region deployment improves reliability and can be combined with sharding or replica sets to handle growth.
