Case Study: Grazia.fr achieves faster performance and multichannel publishing with Ibexa (eZ Publish)

Grazia.fr - Customer Case Study

Mondadori France relaunched Grazia.fr, the web and mobile channel for its popular women’s magazine, to improve readability, usability and performance while migrating to a new technical platform. Faced with a complex page structure, tight three-month timeline and the need to support multiple devices (smartphone, tablet, smart TV), the Digital Technology Department redesigned the interface for a fresh, fluid and responsive multichannel experience with a small four‑developer team.

The DTD implemented the site on eZ Publish Enterprise, integrating Bootstrap and LESS, ezjscore, an enhanced eZ Image Editor, Solr/eZ Find and Nginx, and digitized the archive into a 60,000‑item content database. The result was a visually rich, high‑performance site with improved ergonomics and multichannel support: availability rose from 98.97% to 99.38%, average response time fell from 1.15 s to 0.42 s, and the platform now serves large image and video content reliably for advertisers and editors.
