Learn from this week's Community Session guest Dennis Bauszus from Geolytix sharing how XYZ/MAPP encompasses open source presentation, controller, domain, and service layers for cloud-native spatial data and application interfaces.
Geolytix deploys instances of the XYZ API to Vercel Cloud Functions, using code-as-configuration versioned through GitHub. Instances deployed to Vercel can communicate with each other to share application views, query templates, or plugin modules for the Mapp library.
The Mapp library may securely access sensitive spatial datasets hosted in Neon Serverless Databases through the XYZ API. The XYZ API can also sign requests for third-party services such as AWS, Google, or Cloudinary, with rewrites in the Vercel Edge network used to share domains required for signing requests with domain-protected keys.
The project began ten years ago, with Geolytix working with Vercel since the early Zeit days. Today, they operate about 160 client instances, serving customers in as many countries.
