Atlan Challenge

The Challenge

Implement a solution through which the user can stop the long-running task(like upload of a csv file) at any given point in time, and can choose to resume or terminate it. This will ensure that the resources like compute/memory/storage/time are used efficiently at our end, and do not go into processing tasks that have already been stopped (and then to roll back the work done post the stop-action)

Technologies used

• Node.js ( as runtime environment to run JavaScript code)
• React.js (as a client)
• MongoDB (as database)
• Mongoose (as database schema)

API Endpoints

For CSV file upload

• http://localhost:8080/employee/add

To Stop the upload

• http://localhost:8080/employee/stop

To Resume the upload

• http://localhost:8080/employee/stop
