Project Summary
CodeIT redeveloped and maintained a fashion e-commerce website for a small Turkish retailer, improving performance and adding features. The relaunch produced a reliable, fast site that handles heavy traffic with minimal downtime and few bugs. The vendor also supported server maintenance and delivered a mobile-friendly version, with strong project management and communication noted by the client.
Key Challenges
- Redevelop the e-commerce website to improve performance
- Create a reliable and fast site with minimal downtime
- Ensure the site can cope with heavy traffic without performance degradation
Project Deliverables

Project Solution
After evaluating several vendors, the team developed a PHP-based e-commerce website using Zend Framework 2.0 and MySQL, added Memcached for caching and later integrated Apache Solr to power search. CodeIT implemented a mobile-friendly version, delivered new features on request, and provided system administration and server maintenance support throughout the engagement.
Project Outcome
- The website was built within three months at a very reasonable cost.
- The site has been bug-free and performs reliably under heavy traffic.
- Project managers were competent and demonstrated excellent communication.
