Case Study: Bytes accelerates scalable B2B commerce with Ciklum

Bytes accelerates releases to every 2 weeks with Ciklum

Bytes, a leading UK and Irish provider of IT solutions and software, faced significant challenges with its monolithic B2B commerce platform, which created bottlenecks in scalability, performance, and feature deployment. Their cumbersome infrastructure hindered rapid feature rollouts and delayed key vendor onboarding processes. To address this, Bytes partnered with Ciklum to drive a comprehensive digital transformation and re-engineer its marketplace.

Ciklum's solution involved transitioning the platform to a microservices architecture and integrating AWS and Microsoft Azure services to ensure seamless scalability and enhanced deployment efficiency. By employing a continuous discovery and delivery model and validating features through customer testing, Ciklum saved three months of development effort. The results accelerated Bytes' release cycle from 1-2 times per year to every two weeks and provided 11 design and process improvement recommendations from a year of research.
