Brainvire development team understood every complexity of the code, tried to document the portion of the code to simplify the programming. Moreover, the developers redefined the coding standards and worked accordingly. As a result, the developers could finally crack the code and rectified the mistakes.

Larger Database

The website structure included the larger database filled with user details, offer details, store details and much more. To fetch the results from the larger database was the complex task to do because one of the tables was having 12 GB+ storage.

Brainvire database experts monitored the database structure and crafted some procedures, triggers, and functions to get faster results and to handle a larger number of data. The developers used these functions in the code to streamline all the database operations and to ensure the database safety.

Redesigning of web pages

Since the inception of the portal, the policies were not altered that much. This time, the client wanted every page to be redesigned in order to incorporate new policies and strategies. Plus the client needed the website design that attracts its users to an extreme extent.

Having hands-on experience in CodeIgniter, the developers came up with the fully functional modules with configurable policies and information. Once the policies become configurable, the website was transformed into the scalable one. Moreover, Brainvire’s creative designers crafted a variety of UX based designs, the client chose few and finally, the team came up with a full-fledged website with an eye catchy UI.
