Backend Optimization
ULOM - Platform Refactoring
About the Project
Backend refactoring and performance optimization of monolithic Flask application
Optimization Improvements
- Eliminated redundant MongoDB queries
- Reduced API dependency costs
- Optimized translation-heavy pages
- Improved overall application performance
- 15-20% faster page loads achieved
- Zero-disruption deployment
The Challenge
ULOM's growth exposed structural limitations in its monolithic Flask application causing scalability risks.
25,949-line monolithic Flask application
Redundant MongoDB queries
Increasing API dependency costs
Slower translation-heavy pages
Scalability risks from technical debt
Compounding technical debt making safe improvements difficult
Needed refactoring without disrupting operations
