Project Summary

Scalo sourced PHP Symfony engineers to support a fashion e-commerce platform in migrating a legacy stock and order management system from a monolithic architecture to a distributed one. The engagement focused on ensuring stock consistency across multiple ecommerce platforms integrated with a single WMS and on preserving correct order flow. With Scalo's support, the client saw fewer canceled orders, reduced customer service order processing times, and faster recovery from downtimes.
