Case Study: Drakontas scales mission-critical incident collaboration with Uvik Software

Drakontas scales DragonForce from 10K to 50K users with Uvik Software

Drakontas, a leading provider of command-and-control software for US Federal and State agencies, faced a critical scalability crisis with their flagship DragonForce platform. Their legacy Python 2 architecture had a hard ceiling of 10,000 users, creating a significant risk of failure during large-scale public safety incidents. They partnered with Uvik Software to execute a high-risk Python 2 to 3 migration and scale the system.

Uvik Software provided a high-trust 'Mirror Team' of senior engineers to integrate with the client's R&D center. The solution involved a complete Python migration, developing the product from version 2.6 to 3.5, and DevOps scaling. As a result, Uvik successfully increased the platform's performance to support 50,000 concurrent users, creating a mass-deployment ecosystem for mission-critical environments.
