Monolith to Microservices Migration for E-commerce Platform

Challenge

An e-commerce platform with $50M ARR was struggling with a legacy monolith. Deployments were risky, scaling was expensive, and adding new features took months instead of weeks.

Solution

Outcome

Deployment frequency increased 20x. Infrastructure costs dropped 40% due to efficient auto-scaling. Feature development time reduced from months to weeks.
