Challenge
When you work with personal data and a healthcare startup in 2022, you need highly secure infrastructure so the data will not be compromised by anyone, including your team or any third parties. To make sure it is safe and sound, the project infrastructure usually needs to be rebuilt using up-to-date technologies and approaches towards data protection.

Solution
The project under NDA was initially developed with a custom Drupal 6 code which is weak in terms of security issues. Our first step to make it secure was to redesign the infrastructure and make it based on micro services written in Symfony which is a PHP framework known as one of the most secure solutions around PHP out there. Micro services architecture itself brings an opportunity for developers to separate services, work on those pieces independently and keep them up-to-date which increases entire application availability. The second step was to arrange a compliance structure to make sure that all the processes and general workflow in the team matched the requirements.

Results
After integrating all of the changes and marketing campaigns, the project came up with a range of new metrics listed below:
– the application used to have unplanned downtime at least once a month before integrating new infrastructure, but it has not been down since the change
– API-calls are now processed 5 times faster than before
– releases used to take several months to commit, now they take only 2-3 weeks.
– during the past year, the application got 15,000 more users.
