Microservices Architecture for Electronic Poll Books: Achieving Flexibility and Resilience in Election Systems

Abstract

In order to improve election systems' flexibility and robustness, this study explores the use of microservices architecture in electronic poll books. The study illustrates the notable enhancements in fault tolerance, quick updates, and system customisation by contrasting microservices with conventional monolithic structures. Microservices facilitate autonomous service functioning, enabling prompt recovery from malfunctions and uninterrupted operation throughout elections. The architecture's capacity to enable the smooth integration of new features and technologies increases election systems' flexibility even further. But there are issues that need to be resolved, including handling complexity and guaranteeing security. In the future, research will focus on creating sophisticated management tools, strengthening security procedures, incorporating cutting-edge technology, maximising efficiency, and boosting user experience.
