Dynamo - Dynamic Routing System

Overview

Dynamo is an open-source dynamic routing system designed for payment processing. It intelligently routes payments to different processors based on real-time metrics, helping to optimize payment flows and increase transaction success rates.

Why Dynamo?

  • šŸ’ø Increase Payment Success: Automatically route to the best-performing processors
  • šŸ“Š Data-Driven Decisions: Make routing choices based on real performance metrics
  • šŸŒ Multi-tenant Support: Isolate routing data between different merchants
  • āš” High Performance: Built with Rust for maximum efficiency and reliability
  • šŸ”„ Multiple Routing Strategies: Choose from success-rate, elimination, or contract-based routing

Documentation

Quick Start

Local Setup

bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/dynamo.git
cd dynamo

# Configure Redis
# Make sure Redis is running on localhost:6379 or update the config file

# Build the core service
cargo build --release

# Run with development configuration
./target/release/dynamo

Docker Setup

bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/dynamo.git
cd dynamo

# Build the Docker image
docker build -t dynamo:latest .

# Run with default configuration
docker run -p 8000:8000 -p 9000:9000 dynamo:latest

# Run with custom configuration
docker run -p 8000:8000 -p 9000:9000 -v $(pwd)/config:/app/config dynamo:latest

Usage Examples

Success Rate Based Routing

bash
# Make a routing decision based on success rates
grpcurl -d '{"id": "merchant1", "params": "card", "labels": ["stripe", "adyen"], "config": {"min_aggregates_size": 5, "default_success_rate": 100}}' \
  -plaintext localhost:8000 success_rate.SuccessRateCalculator/FetchSuccessRate

Update Payment Results

bash
# Update success rate data with payment results
grpcurl -d '{"id": "merchant1", "params": "card", "labels_with_status": [{"label": "stripe", "status": true}], "config": {"max_aggregates_size": 10, "current_block_threshold": {"max_total_count": 5}}}' \
  -plaintext localhost:8000 success_rate.SuccessRateCalculator/UpdateSuccessRateWindow

For more examples, see our Examples Documentation.

Project Structure

Dynamo consists of two main components:

  • dynamo: Core routing service with GRPC/HTTP APIs
  • procesmo: WebAssembly module for data processing and visualization

The project uses a workspace structure:

crates/
ā”œā”€ā”€ dynamo/         # Main routing service
ā””ā”€ā”€ procesmo/       # WebAssembly data processing module
