Abstract: The system and method described herein provide an order fulfillment database system. The order fulfillment database system may provide a high throughput speed, high availability, redundancy, and scalability. The order fulfillment database system supports very fast transaction times for atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) transactions. Order services instances at a primary cluster provide in-memory databases that service segments of the persistent database and are associated with different order fulfillment entities. A routing manager routes database messages to the appropriate order services instance. A secondary cluster of order services instances provides redundancy. A retry procedure preserves the integrity of the database transactions based on a current operational state of the primary order services instances.

Abstract: An event ordering framework for the ordering of out of ordered messages generated by asynchronous events across disparate systems. The system receives a message, creates a common object model based on the message, and applies a dependency model to the message. Utilizing the dependency model, the framework determines if any subsequently expected messages have already arrived and reprocesses all the messages in the sequence in that event. When a dependent message arrives earlier in the sequence than expected the framework stores the messages corresponding object model for later processing.

Abstract: A system and a method for the continuous pick route optimization in an order fulfillment system is discussed. The system receives inputs to the one or more orders from the database based on operations and stores the inputs in a local input cache. The system determines a delta in the local input cache based on the inputs and selects an optimization algorithm from a set of optimization algorithms based at least in part on the delta passing a threshold. The system executes the optimization algorithm on the one or more orders resulting in an optimized picklist and compares the optimized picklist against a cached picklist stored in a commit cache. The optimized picklist is stored to a result cache. The system receives a request for a picklist from a mobile electronic device and sends the optimized picklist to the mobile electronic device.
