Mr Yum: Shipping business apps 5x faster across 3 VPCs with Superblocks

Mr Yum, an Australian technology company, provides ordering, payment, and marketing solutions for the hospitality industry. Their platform allows customers to place orders and make payments directly from their smartphones or tablets, eliminating physical menus, cash transactions, and waiting staff involvement in order-taking. Additionally, Mr Yum offers data insights and analytics to help restaurants understand customer preferences and improve operations. The company has also utilized Superblocks to build user interfaces for its Support team and select enterprise clients, enabling them to visualize restaurant data and make updates to backend configurations independently. This automation has significantly improved operational efficiency within the company. With Superblocks, Mr Yum's Support team can now access customer data previously only available through SQL queries to CockroachDB. Enterprise clients with hundreds of venues and thousands of staff can manage routine changes like editing, updating, or adding new staff more efficiently. The Superblocks On-Premise Agent allows secure connections to customer data stored in CockroachDB and S3 while receiving the latest UI features from Superblocks Cloud. Superblocks Profiles have enabled Mr Yum to integrate with all of their environments throughout the development lifecycle in a single application, reducing the need for manual duplication across regions and clusters. Combining sequenced event handlers with step-based APIs has made it easy for engineers to connect frontend components to backend APIs with all required business logic. Overall, Mr Yum's adoption of Superblocks has led to a 5x faster development time compared to building from scratch and has significantly improved the customer experience in restaurants using their platform.
