Uvik Software was brought in to rebuild and optimize the backend for our high-throughput API product. The engagement focused on improving scalability, response times, uptime, deployment speed, and long-term maintainability.

Their team reviewed the limitations of our existing implementation and redesigned the service around better async patterns and more scalable backend practices. They optimized database access, introduced Redis caching, improved connection management, and strengthened the deployment setup in AWS ECS. They also added a more robust observability layer so the platform team could monitor performance and diagnose issues more effectively in production.

Key deliverables included:

• redesigned FastAPI backend architecture;
• performance optimization across the API and database layers;
• Redis caching and connection pooling implementation;
• improved AWS ECS deployment setup;
• observability with Prometheus, Grafana, and structured logging;
• better automated test coverage and code quality practices;
• support for production rollout and scaling.

Overall, the scope covered both technical modernization and practical performance engineering to make the API ready for the next stage of customer growth.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The project delivered clear performance and operational improvements. API throughput increased from about 3,000 requests per second to 15,000 requests per second, while p95 latency dropped from 380 ms to 42 ms. Since launch, uptime has remained at 99.97%.

In addition, our deployment process became much faster, moving from biweekly releases to multiple deployments per day. Test coverage on the rebuilt backend reached 91%, and infrastructure cost per request declined by around 35%. These improvements gave us a more scalable and reliable platform for continued growth.

Important: replace these metrics with the client’s real numbers if needed.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Their project management was strong throughout the engagement. They were organized, responsive, and easy to work with, and they integrated well with our internal platform team. Deliverables were generally completed on time, and communication was consistent and clear.

They were proactive in surfacing risks, discussing tradeoffs, and adjusting priorities when needed.

Overall, they were dependable and collaborative partners.

What was your primary form of communication with Uvik Software?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The most impressive thing was their level of performance engineering discipline. They did not stop at making the API functional — they looked at the system end to end and optimized it at every meaningful layer, from async patterns and database access to caching, observability, and deployment.

That combination of FastAPI-specific expertise and practical production thinking is rare. Many teams can build backend features, but fewer can materially improve throughput, latency, uptime, and cost efficiency at the same time. Uvik Software stood out because they could do both.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Uvik Software could have done differently?

I would say that their initial API documentation style was a bit different from our internal format. That said, they adapted quickly once we aligned on expectations, and it did not have any meaningful impact on delivery or outcomes.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Uvik Software to accomplish?

• We hired Uvik Software to help us modernize a legacy Python/Django platform that had become a growing technical and operational risk for the business. Our core objective was to move from Python 2.7 / Django 1.11 to a current, supported stack without disrupting a live production system. Just upgrading versions was not enough for us. We also wanted to improve test coverage, reduce release risk, resolve long-standing dependency and security issues, and leave the platform in a state where our internal team could move faster going forward.

2-5 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The project focused on modernizing a live production platform that had been running on Python 2.7 and Django 1.11 for several years. Because the platform was business-critical, a full rewrite was not a realistic option, so the work was done incrementally.

Uvik Software first helped stabilize the legacy codebase by increasing automated test coverage around the most sensitive areas. From there, they migrated the system module by module. Their typical flow was to add or strengthen tests, refactor older code for compatibility, upgrade the module to the newer Python/Django stack, and then validate it in staging before release.

They also used the migration window to clean up outdated dependencies, remediate security issues, and improve the general maintainability of the codebase.

Key deliverables included:

migration from Python 2.7 / Django 1.11 to Python 3.11 / Django 4.2
expanded automated test coverage across core modules
incremental rollout of migrated components without downtime
dependency and security remediation
improved release readiness and documentation for the internal team

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The biggest result was that the platform was successfully migrated from Python 2.7 / Django 1.11 to Python 3.11 / Django 4.2 without downtime or migration-related production incidents.

Beyond that, we saw meaningful quality and delivery improvements:

test coverage increased from 23% to 84%
release cadence improved from monthly to weekly
internal deployment confidence improved from 3.1/10 to 8.4/10
new engineer onboarding time dropped from about 6 weeks to 2 weeks
3 critical security vulnerabilities were resolved during the modernization effort

For us, the value was not just that the migration was completed, but that the platform became much safer and easier to work with afterward.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Their project management was structured, clear, and low-drama. They tracked progress at the module level, surfaced risks early, and kept communication focused on what actually mattered: what had been completed, what was blocked, what could affect release safety, and what decisions needed input from our side.

Yes, they delivered on time for the milestones we agreed on, and when priorities shifted, they adapted quickly. I also appreciated that they did not hide complexity. If something was likely to create migration risk, they raised it early and came with options instead of surprises.

They worked well with our internal team and were responsive throughout the project.

What was your primary form of communication with Uvik Software?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What impressed me most was their discipline around modernization in a live environment. A lot of teams can talk about upgrading a stack, but fewer can do it carefully without treating production stability as an afterthought.

Uvik Software was strong technically, but what made them especially valuable was judgment. They did not push a flashy rewrite. They took a more mature approach: reduce risk, improve testability, modernize incrementally, and make sure our team understood the system as it evolved.

That combination of senior engineering depth and practical execution was the biggest differentiator for us.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Uvik Software could have done differently?

Overall, the engagement went very well. If I had to point to one area for improvement, I would say that some of the early migration decisions could have been documented more thoroughly at the start of the project.

That said, once we raised it, they responded well and improved the documentation standard in the following phases. So it was a relatively minor issue, and they handled the feedback professionally.

Their scope included reviewing and refactoring unstable pipelines, improving orchestration in Airflow, optimizing Snowflake workloads, and helping structure the transformation layer in dbt so it was easier to test and maintain. They also built out monitoring and alerting around pipeline health, which had been a major gap for us.

Key deliverables included:

Refactoring several unreliable production pipelines
Improving orchestration and job stability in Airflow
Optimizing Snowflake performance and reducing unnecessary compute usage
Supporting the rollout of dbt for cleaner, more maintainable transformations
Building pipeline monitoring, alerting, and visibility dashboards
Helping onboard new upstream data sources into the platform

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The results were very clear over the course of the engagement. Pipeline reliability improved from about 91% to 99.6%, and the latency on some of our core dashboards dropped from roughly 8 hours to 45 minutes. Silent failures, which had been an ongoing issue, were reduced from around 12 per month to fewer than 1. We also onboarded two additional upstream sources, adding about 2.4 TB of daily throughput, and reduced Snowflake compute costs by approximately 22%.

Beyond the numbers, the team gave us something we didn’t really have before: visibility into pipeline health and much more confidence in the data we were delivering to customers.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management was smooth and low-overhead, which was important for us. Their engineers worked inside our existing processes rather than creating a parallel vendor structure. They joined our Jira board, Slack channels, and code review flow, so communication felt direct and easy.

In terms of delivery, they were reliable and responsive. Most work was delivered on time, and when priorities shifted, they adapted quickly without a lot of friction. They were also proactive about raising risks or suggesting better ways to approach a problem instead of just waiting for instructions.

What was your primary form of communication with Uvik Software?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The most impressive thing was how quickly they became productive in a fairly complex data environment. They didn’t need much hand-holding, and they understood the difference between just writing pipelines and actually improving the reliability of a data platform.

I’d also say their strongest contribution was around observability. We originally engaged them to help with throughput and freshness, but the monitoring and alerting layer they built ended up being one of the most valuable long-term improvements. It changed how our team operates day to day.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Uvik Software could have done differently?

Overall, the engagement went well. One area we could have aligned on earlier was naming conventions and modeling standards in dbt, just to avoid a bit of back-and-forth at the beginning. It wasn’t a major issue, and once we agreed on conventions, things moved smoothly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We’ve managed to launch the MVP for our client within the strict investor’s deadline. The overall performance of the platform we’ve worked on is the key metric. The biggest issue was the speed of the platform because of the huge amount of data. The platform wasn’t that user-friendly, so improving that was one of the key goals for us. Since working with Uvik Software, we’ve seen faster load times and better user feedback.

We started working with Uvik at a point when we needed additional engineering support without slowing down our internal processes. From the first weeks, the cooperation felt natural and well-integrated into our workflow. The team did not require heavy onboarding or constant supervision. They were able to understand context quickly, ask the right questions, and move forward independently. This saved us a significant amount of time and reduced management overhead.

Throughout the collaboration, we appreciated the calm and pragmatic way the team approached daily work. Priorities were respected, expectations were clear, and progress was visible without the need for micromanagement. From a partnership perspective, the experience was reliable and predictable. Deliverables were aligned with our goals, and the overall quality of work met our standards. Based on this experience, we consider Uvik a solid and trustworthy technology partner and would be open to continuing or expanding the collaboration in the future.

How did Uvik Software perform from a project management standpoint?

We work with a solo developer from their side, and he’s a top-notch professional about delivery time and is really reliable in general. Our primary form of communication is virtual meetings, emails, and messaging apps.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The experience has been smooth and dependable. The work has stayed aligned with our goals, and the overall quality has met our expectations.

Are there any areas they could improve?

In the very beginning, it always matters to understand the client’s priorities. We feel like maybe some additional time could’ve been spent on discovery to help the developer onboard even quicker. However, in general, we wouldn’t change anything.
