Case Study: HEAD launches a stable eCommerce platform with EPAM Systems

Launching a Stable eCommerce Platform in Record Time for HEAD

Head, a global sports equipment manufacturer, needed to upgrade its Magento eCommerce platform but faced significant performance issues that threatened its launch before the critical Winter Sports campaign. They engaged vendor EPAM Systems and its Magento expertise to assume development responsibility and ensure a stable platform could be launched on a strict deadline.

EPAM implemented a solution that included assuming development, addressing web shop performance by introducing AWS, and establishing a CI/CD pipeline. This resulted in the successful launch of the stable eCommerce platform for all 35 countries within the six-week timeframe and established budget. The vendor EPAM delivered a significantly improved and stable system that could handle load peaks, allowing Head to confidently push its eCommerce business.
