The platform is mainly developed in PHP with the frameworks CakePHP & Laravel. The teams are currently working on moving the solution into a service-based architecture using TypeScript, NodeJS, and other technologies (you may help them choose). The GotPhoto SaaS platform helps school photographers streamline their workflow and ensure that they can easily manage large photoshoots and print amazing products their customers want.

Our core application is a modular CakePHP monolith - not as monolithic as you may have seen before. As we have scaled in terms of features and functionality we have built microservices in PHP, NodeJS, Python, and React. We use AWS-Cloud using MySQL, Docker, SQS, SNS, SES, PHPUnit, NewRelic, Graylog. QA has a Cypress Stack for end-to-end testing. In the Platform team, we make use of Amazon Lamdba for image processing to keep the scale very flexible. Payments are handled and abstracted by the finance team in their own distributed service. Since our business has complex use cases, we keep the cognitive load for our Devs as low as possible so they focus on solving problems rather than configuring tech. We use Dockerized Environments to be able to run any part of the system on any system We use AWS to scale our architecture to our customers due to seasonality which made us build the system in a way that it can scale up and down We have a scalable image processing system based on serverless AWS Lambda We use GitLab for our CICD Pipelines We value that any developer is enabled to do deployments into the live system with a click of a button
