Synthetic Monitoring Implementation for Customer Experience Assurance

The project aims to develop a synthetic monitoring system using configurable scripts to simulate customer interactions with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep's endpoints and APIs. The goal is to create "canaries" that mimic customer journeys, allowing the company to proactively identify and resolve issues before they impact users. By implementing these synthetic tests, the company can ensure a seamless and reliable customer experience. The project will involve understanding the existing customer interaction pathways, scripting these interactions, and scheduling them to run at regular intervals. This will provide continuous monitoring and alert the team to any discrepancies or failures in the system. The project will leverage AWS CloudWatch Synthetics to achieve these objectives, ensuring that the monitoring is both efficient and scalable.

One-Click KPI Reporting System

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep is seeking to enhance its data reporting capabilities by developing a one-click reporting system for key performance metrics. The company has already created a template and wireframe for the report, but currently lacks the integration of data into this framework. The goal of this project is to enable seamless data flow from the existing database into the pre-designed report template, allowing for efficient and accurate performance analysis. This project provides an opportunity for learners to apply their knowledge of database management, data integration, and user interface design. The tasks involved are closely related and can be completed by a team of learners specializing in information technology or computer science. The project is designed to be completed within 80 hours, ensuring a focused and manageable workload.

Anniversary Slideshow Automation for Increased Donations

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep aims to enhance its donation strategy by leveraging the emotional connection with families they have previously served. The project focuses on creating an automated system that generates personalized anniversary slideshows from an existing gallery of photos.

This project will allow learners to apply their skills in software development, automation, and user experience design. The tasks will include designing the slideshow template, developing the automation script, and integrating the system with the organization's existing photo gallery. The project is designed to be completed by a team of learners from a computer science or software engineering program.
