DATA PONDS
Data Ponds is a web-based application that captures and analyzes data through interacting with the user, other applications, and the database itself. A general-purpose database, Data Ponds, is used to define, create, update, and manage databases. Users can use this web-based application to create their own databases to satisfy their business needs. It shows you the visual representation of your data on its simplified dashboard. Data Ponds is also used to manage those databases that have information about email, ecommerce, blogs, ebusiness and other online applications. This web-based application accepts the request for data and prompts the operating system to deliver the requested data.

CHALLENGES
The significant challenge that came up was designing UI/UX as web apps are entirely different and must be responsive enough on the smaller screens; therefore, they must have intuitive navigation. Another difficulty that occurred was with the scalability and performance of Data Ponds; it must have the capability to balance different servers and their traffic.
