A Dream
- Tom Petty
Monolithic
One all encompassing Ruby on Rails app contained everything from the public website to the core payments infrastructure.
Growth

Extracted the marketing site from the core business-critical payments infrastructure and migrated into it a standalone project for development and deploy optimization and overall stability.
