Web Inventory Scraper
The web scraper software was built for collecting wholesale fine gem inventory data from providers across the internet to expand the administrator’s potential saleable gem inventory. The “server-less” software architecture provides the administrator with a valuable competitive edge, leveraging infinitely concurrently scalable AWS Lambda cloud functions with minimal computer cost overhead. Without the underlying restrictions and costs of 24/7 servers, the software retrieves valuable inventory data from around the web on-demand with no impact on critical infrastructure or tight budgets.
The web scraper can be initialized on demand from within a back-end administration dashboard, which also gives the admin numerous tools to oversee its operations. This includes high level statistics on the inventory that was gathered, evaluation of the web scraper’s performance over time, data about the suppliers from which inventory was collected, and an overview of the media gathered along with the inventory.
