Context
A nationwide portal listing condominiums and single-family homes (new, used, rental, custom-built), with sale assessments and real-estate news.
Challenge
The existing system had to be replaced by new repositories without changing how the portal behaved for its many users.
Approach
- Defined the architecture for the new repositories.
- Investigated and compared migration approaches.
- Created test viewpoints as a shared quality baseline, and ran E2E checks with Puppeteer.
- Planned the work quarter by quarter and consolidated status for the client.
Result
- Migration to the new repositories with business behavior preserved.
- Performance profiled with Dynatrace and logs managed in Splunk.
