Description:

In the world of software, the necessity of user data tracking is evident. Ponga wishes to nudge its users towards certain value propositions in order to increase their lifetime value. These value propositions comprise the number of uploaded photos, the number of shares, and the number of comments one user perpetrates. With a healthy mix of these three value propositions, a user’s lifetime value would be considered satisfactory. The amount of time a user has existed also comes into play, but the numbers of their value propositions wouldn’t reach a significant high without an extensive relationship with Ponga. 

Our objective is to design a series of AWS Lambda functions and a database structure to handle the tracking of users. The data gathered on each user will be drawn on to assess their risk level as a customer and Ponga will act accordingly. To determine a user’s risk level, we will perform calculations with a user’s value proposition numbers. If the user’s numbers are unsatisfactory in one area, then Ponga can push the user in a different direction. The significance of this problem lies in our unique solution to it. Our software is named Insight and will be unique in tracking user data by comparing value propositions over time via calculations involving n-dimensional geometry.
