Architectural changes
Summer has been a slow month but we’ve been working on a new architecture for Inkzee. Right now, and even though we enabled new internal features, the current server where the alpha is hosted is too slow for the application and so we are migrating it to a bigger server.
Before we complete the migration, we are finishing some big changes to the way the application works. The new changes will make the application much faster and much more scalable. That way, if the new server isn’t enough, we’ll be able to add new machines to the application and scale horizontally.
The architectural changes will be finished by next week, so the migration will happen very soon and hopefully we’ll be able to send more invitations for the current alpha.
Thanks a lot for the comprehension and we hope everyone had a good summer!

Entrepreneur contest finalists
Hello everybody,
Today we have great news! Inkzee has been selected as one of the 10 finalists for the Entrepreneur contest run by the EOI School of Business. It’s been an honor to have reached the final stage and we’ll try everything in our hand to take the first prize.
The next phase will be the 29th and 30th of September and we’ll have to do a presentation of Inkzee in front of a jury who will elect the winners.
Even though we haven’t won, the fact of being in the final is really great for us. It revalidates our business idea and most importantly, that our business plan is a solid one. Let’s hope we can at least achieve one of the top prizes.
Wish us good luck!!
