Background

Our client, a large retail chain, was struggling to keep up with the demand for their online shopping platform. The website was slow and often crashed during peak periods, resulting in lost sales and frustrated customers. They approached us to help them improve the performance of their platform and ensure it could handle high traffic volumes.

Problem

The main challenge we faced was identifying the root cause of the performance issues. We conducted a thorough analysis of the platform and discovered that the codebase was outdated and poorly optimized. Additionally, there were several third-party integrations that were causing bottlenecks in the system.

Solution

We recommended a complete overhaul of the codebase using modern development practices and technologies. This involved migrating to a cloud-based infrastructure that could scale dynamically based on traffic volume. We also worked closely with our client's IT team to optimize third-party integrations and reduce their impact on system performance.
