Case Study: Yuka reduces technical debt and boosts performance with SensioLabs

Yuka reduces technical debt and supports 68 million users with SensioLabs

Yuka, a global health app company, faced the challenge of upgrading its Symfony 4 application to reduce significant technical debt and security risks. With a small technical team, they needed expert support to manage the long-term upgrade process without halting daily development. They enlisted the help of vendor SensioLabs for this Symfony upgrade project.

SensioLabs experts orchestrated a gradual upgrade from Symfony 4 through to version 7, which also involved updating PHP, Doctrine, and EasyAdmin. The solution included extensive code refactoring, implementing a new continuous integration chain, and standardizing practices. As a result, Yuka drastically reduced its technical debt, improved application performance by optimizing queries, and ensured long-term support and security for its codebase.
