The Challenge
NEP Publishers ran three editorial sites on shared hosting with 8-second average load times. Conflicting plugins caused weekly outages, and the editorial team lost hours every week to manual workarounds and patch rollbacks.
Our Solution
We migrated all three sites to managed VPS hosting, implemented Redis object caching, optimized the database by removing redundant queries, eliminated 14 conflicting plugins, and set up a staging environment with automated pre-deployment testing.
