Research on lightweight real-time collaborative management system for ERP of small and medium-sized enterprises based on Node.js

Abstract

Against the backdrop of SMEs' digital transformation, traditional ERP systems face pain points like high deployment costs, long customization cycles and insufficient real-time collaboration. This thesis develops a lightweight real-time collaborative erp system following the “theory-design-practice” framework. It clarifies contradictions between traditional ERP and SMEs' demands, constructs relevant theories and methodologies, designs a fourtier architecture and core modules, and develops the system using Node.js (NestJS), Vue3, MySQL and Redis. Multi-dimensional testing and 3-month pilot applications in two SMEs verify its feasibility. Core innovations lie in integrating lightweight design and WebSocket-based real-time collaboration, providing a low-threshold solution for SMEs' digital transformation.
