Transition from Radio86 to gbtimes.

A large scale Drupal 7 based multilingual website with tens of thousands of pieces of content.

Utilizes Apache Solr for search functionality, APC and Memcached for internal caching, and clustered Varnish servers for page caching, load balancing and latency-based DNS routing using Amazon Route53 service.

Integrated with Razuna media asset management system.

Integrated with Brightcove video cloud, with a custom solution for dynamically creating a Google-compliant video sitemap of uploaded videos.

SEO and page load speed optimization is a major point of focus.

I have also done a lot of PHP performance optimization with the help of tools like XHProf and Xdebug.
