Case Study: Auchan achieves faster, lower-risk Symfony migration with SensioLabs

Auchan - Customer Case Study

Auchan E-Commerce, one of France's largest supermarket chains, was struggling with a custom-built PHP framework that could not support its exponential international growth. To address this, they engaged SensioLabs to manage the complex, progressive migration of their entire back office, which consisted of over one million lines of code, to the more robust Symfony 2 framework.

SensioLabs implemented the migration while ensuring the systems remained operational, leading to a significant reduction in technical debt, project costs, and time to market. The solution, which also included training over 40 developers, resulted in optimized performance, fewer bugs, and a strengthened partnership between the two companies for ongoing technical expertise.
