Trupper: Multitenant Exam Management System
Production exam management platform streamlining institutional exam processes with multitenant architecture
Project Overview
Trupper is a comprehensive exam management system designed to streamline the entire exam process for educational institutions. Built as a multitenant SaaS platform, it enables multiple institutions to manage their exams independently while sharing the same infrastructure.
The system handles exam creation, scheduling, real-time monitoring, automated grading, result generation, and comprehensive reporting—all within a secure, scalable architecture.
Problem Statement
Educational institutions struggle with manual exam processes, lack of real-time monitoring, and inefficient result management. Traditional systems are often institution-specific, expensive, and difficult to scale.
Trupper addresses these challenges by providing a unified, multitenant platform that allows institutions to manage their entire exam lifecycle efficiently while maintaining data isolation and security.

Multitenant Architecture
The system implements a sophisticated multitenant architecture ensuring complete data isolation between institutions while sharing infrastructure efficiently. Each tenant (institution) has isolated data, custom branding, and independent configuration.
This architecture enables cost-effective scaling, centralized maintenance, and rapid deployment of new features across all tenants while maintaining security and compliance requirements.
Performance & Scalability
Built to handle concurrent exams across multiple institutions, Trupper utilizes optimized database queries, caching strategies, and efficient real-time communication to maintain performance under high load.
The platform supports thousands of simultaneous exam takers with real-time monitoring, ensuring system stability and responsive user experience.
