Challenge

Enterprise organizations require cloud-native data processing services that can analyze Spotify playlist data while maintaining security, scalability, and performance. Traditional approaches lack proper cloud deployment, infrastructure automation, and comprehensive security measures. Organizations need a production-ready service that demonstrates API integration, data processing, and cloud deployment capabilities.

Solution

Developed a production-ready cloud service for Spotify playlist analysis with comprehensive security and deployment automation:

  • Cloud-Native Architecture: Flask backend with MongoDB integration and Docker containerization

  • AWS ECS Deployment: Container orchestration with auto-scaling and load balancing

  • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform automation for complete infrastructure deployment

  • CI/CD Pipeline: Jenkins automation with automated testing and deployment

  • API Security: Secure Spotify API integration with proper authentication and error handling

  • Data Processing: Genre analysis and ranking with efficient data structures

  • Monitoring & Observability: Application and infrastructure metrics with comprehensive logging

  • Secrets Management: AWS SecretsManager for credential management and VPC configuration

The service demonstrates production-ready cloud deployment with comprehensive security measures and infrastructure automation.

Code Examples

Spotify API Integration: Retrieves playlist tracks and artist data

spotify.py
spotify.py Python
def get_playlist_tracks(playlist_id):
    results = sp.playlist_items(playlist_id, additional_types=('track', ))
    total_tracks_count = results['total']
    tracks = results['items']
    while results['next']:
        results = sp.next(results)
        tracks.extend(results['items'])
        print(f"len(tracks):{len(tracks)}")
    track_data = {'items': tracks, 'total_count': total_tracks_count}
    return track_data

def get_track(track_id):
    track = sp.track(track_id)
    return track

def get_artist(artist_id):
    artist_data = sp.artist(artist_id)
    return artist_data

Flask API Endpoint: Processes playlist genre analysis requests

app.py
app.py Python
@app.route("/playlist/analyze", methods=['POST'])
def get_playlist_genres():
    playlist_id = request.json['playlist_id']
    playlist = models.Playlist(
        id = playlist_id,
    )
    playlist.fetch_track_data()
    playlist.load_artists()
    playlist.load_tracks()
    for track in playlist.tracks:
        track.enrich_artists()
    results = playlist.perform_genre_analysis()
    return jsonify(results)
