Case Study: David Kind stabilizes and upgrades its e-commerce platform with Sinaptia

David Kind stabilizes e-commerce after 4-year Ruby on Rails partnership with Sinaptia

David Kind, an eyewear company, faced significant challenges with their outdated Ruby on Rails e-commerce application, which had accumulated years of technical debt, bugs, and security vulnerabilities. Without an internal development team, they needed expert help to perform critical updates and implement new features. They contacted Sinaptia to augment their team with skilled Ruby on Rails developers.

Sinaptia began by evaluating the application and then upgraded the Heroku infrastructure and resolved long-standing bugs. The team then successfully implemented new integrations for Apple Pay, Zip, and Klaviyo before upgrading the Ruby on Rails framework and its dependencies. As a result, Sinaptia stabilized the e-commerce platform, mitigated security risks, improved performance, and delivered all required new features, which allowed David Kind to sell their products more effectively with a platform that subsequently needed little to no maintenance.
