During my tenure at FFW, I had the opportunity to participate in a project that facilitated a significant 90% reduction in our client's expenses. This achievement was made possible by the successful migration of their Drupal application from Acquia Enterprise servers to a smaller business server within the company.
This accomplishment required extensive re-engineering efforts to optimize the original application and alleviate the load on the Drupal servers. Tasks included transferring the verification process, subscription purchase checkout, user account management, and admin account management away from Drupal. Additionally, the team reengineered the search functionality and implemented cacheability for all front-end user pages, even for logged-in users.
I take pride in my contribution to this complex task within the project, and I am grateful to have been a part of this monumental effort.
