The Challenge

What they needed

The client's monolithic e-commerce platform was struggling under Black Friday traffic and couldn't support the omnichannel experiences customers expected. New features took months to deploy, and the system was increasingly unstable.

Our Solution

How we helped

We executed a phased migration to a microservices architecture using the strangler fig pattern. Critical paths were prioritized, and we implemented a robust API gateway for seamless integration. The new platform runs on Kubernetes with auto-scaling capabilities.
