Our client got this project developed with another agency in PWA Studio and Magento 2. However, there were many issues in their current platform. So they have approached our team to create a fresh design with the latest technology stack. Our team required to focus on the issues mentioned below in order to provide a seamless experience:
Our team conducted a comprehensive audit that revealed multiple issues within the website architecture and codebase. By integrating a new Relic, we identified the SQL/query load, as well as the components that caused delays in loading. Then, we optimized the modules that were affected and cleaned up the redundant data, such as url_rewrite from the tables. As a result, this improved performance but it was not up to the mark and now we needed to go for infrastructure revamp.
EC2 instances for each service/application(Magento/Backend, PWA/frontend, Redis, Varnish). ELB (Elastic load balancer) for routing and ASG for Auto Scaling. 
S3 buckets for media. RDS for database Opensearch Service for search 
For Prerendering solution for boats we used separate service from prerender.io We used cloudflare for caching and WAF Cloudflare WAF implemented a website safe from boat attacks. Proper usage CORS module and their listing. IP based whitelisting for integrations. VPN/VPC restricted access. Penetration Testing. CSP implementation on frontend. Protect Against CSRF and XSS. Regularly Update and Patch. Restricted Admin Access. SSL Encryption. Manual/Automated code reviews are conducted alongside the use of SonarQube, and for frontend ESLint is employed for coding formatting and adherence to standards. Utilized the AWS CloudWatch service to set up alerts for system downtime and developed a Python script on Lambda to send notifications in case the GraphQL services are unresponsive. The Noibu tool, a third-party solution, is employed to capture frontend traces and user experiences. It sends notifications for every frontend error encountered by end users on various browsers and devices. GA4 with GTM We used github for branch and repository management. Source code scanning during the code commits/merge. DeployHq(third party) service to send the builds and manage the pre/post deployment command, it also flush the cache automatically from cloudflare on post deployment. Webp conversion using lambda script on S3 itself without application involvement, any image that goes to S3 automatically converts to webp. There is no single image/csv or any kind of media hosted or placed on webserver. Varnish and Redis configurations to use best of it. Database junk cleanup tasks are designed to remove logs or outdated and unwanted data within a specified timeframe. Added third party cloud service called prerender.io to render a preprocessed or cached html dom for google/bing and other social platforms for better seo and website performance. Orderite ERP – Custom module to sync Catalog, Orders with Orderite. Worldpay – Custom payment module for both backend and frontend. Givex Gift Card – Custom module created to interact with givex for gift card buying and redemption. Prerender.io (Prerenderer) – Service to render a preprocessed/cached dom for boats.. 
The solutions were implemented seamlessly, and there were no critical issues post-launch. Have a look at the key results.
The website's performance has substantially improved, matching client satisfaction.
Our team optimized the website's infrastructure and resulted in client's cost savings by improved resource utilization.
Our team resolved all ERP sync issues through a total code refactor.
To enhance web vitals, we utilized prerender.io cloud service, which safeguarded web server resources and carefully handled bot traffic. This enhancement has optimized web vitals and reduced resource usage.
The new optimized website can efficiently manage high traffic volumes, particularly during sales periods, maintaining an order quantity of 200-300 orders per day, even with larger order sizes.
We addressed issues with the import job, implemented additional exception handling to promptly capture any data errors, and set up notifications to alert the admin. Furthermore, we optimized execution times for large files by taking into account resource constraints and file sizes, ensuring efficient processing within specified time frames.
