Dear @zerodha I asked #Bard to review of the issue with login and marketwatch on #zerodha #Kite on December 4, 2023 . You may like to read the reply. Insufficient impact assessment: It appears that comprehensive checks and analyses weren't conducted to identify potential downstream issues that could arise from the implemented changes. This lack of foresight contributed to the unexpected strain on the login system and Marketwatch functionality. Brittle login infrastructure: The current login system seems susceptible to unexpected surges in activity, as evidenced by its inability to handle the influx of password reset requests triggered by the email alerts. This fragility highlights the need for a more robust and scalable login infrastructure. Communication silos: The information gap between teams responsible for the IP database update, email alerts, and login/Marketwatch systems suggests a lack of coordinated communication. This disconnect likely hindered the ability to anticipate and mitigate potential conflicts, ultimately leading to the observed issues. Reactive approach to problem-solving: While the temporary fixes implemented (suspending password resets, migrating users) addressed the immediate problems, they appear to be reactive measures rather than proactive solutions. This reactive approach might leave the system vulnerable to similar incidents in the future if the root causes aren't thoroughly addressed. Overreliance on single points of failure: Both the login issue (dependent on password reset functionality) and the Marketwatch issue (reliant on a specific infrastructure) highlight the risks associated with overdependence on single points of failure. Implementing redundancies and backups could help minimize downtime and ensure service continuity during such situations. Inefficient resource allocation: The need to migrate affected users to a new server due to the Marketwatch issue suggests inefficient resource allocation within the infrastructure. This reactive approach might not be the most cost-effective or sustainable solution in the long run. Investing in better monitoring, testing, and redundant systems could potentially prevent such disruptions and optimize resource utilization.
