Backend development workflow

By choosing us as your backend development company, you can expect the following workflow for your mobile app or web product software development.

  • 1
    Gathering requirements
    We collect details about your concept to determine the necessary basic and non-standard features. We review third-party services and existing libraries that could reduce software development costs. Our analysts then create a detailed project breakdown and provide estimates for cost and time.
  • 2
    Plan 2–3 week sprints
    Our backend developers employ short iterations to deliver tangible results, such as a new app version, for your review after each sprint. The development plan is aligned with the application's design.
  • 3
    Establish scalable architecture and write clear code
    We leverage pre-existing basic features and tailor them to your specific needs to save time. This allows us to focus on developing unique features and ensuring rapid and efficient implementation.
  • 4
    Establish development environment
    This step involves the creation of a development environment. This is a sort of workspace where our DevOps team work on the technical processes of building (assembling all the elements of the project) and deploying (pressing it into service or making it operational).
  • 5
    Develop features with automated tests coverage
    We write code and create automated tests to facilitate smooth modifications and bolster release resiliency. These tests also generate API documentation, streamlining communication within the team. Our autotests incorporate generative AI and our custom library of standard solutions for expedited development.
  • 6
    Ensure stable software operation
    We conduct automatic API tests and end-to-end product testing to prevent user issues. We use Sentry for error tracking and performance monitoring and employ kube-prometheus-stack for cloud management, while Argo CD assists in tracking deployment issues.
  • 7
    Bring the software into production
    Our engineers set up several environments where the created product can be deployed. Usually, we set up three environments: a development environment used by developers, a staging environment where the customers can check our progress, and a production environment, where software becomes available for use.
  • 8
    Provide post-launch maintenance
    As we’re more than just a backend development company, our services do not stop with the web or mobile app release. After an MVP, or the first version of the app is released, we are ready to continue working on the project. We can add new features, enhance the product based on user reviews, and fix bugs if there are any.
Feel free to get in touch with us today to discuss how we can tailor our backend development services to meet your unique requirements.

What’s more?

Frontend development

Backend development forms the backbone of any application, serving as the foundational server-side technology that powers an app's functionality. It is indispensable for handling data storage, server logic, and ensuring seamless integration between different parts of the app.

Complementing this is frontend development, which provides the user-facing interface that allows for interaction with the backend's processes. Together, these two crucial aspects of development work in harmony to produce a comprehensive user experience.

Our expertise encompasses both these critical domains. Discover the value added by our professional frontend development services. For more detailed information about our offerings, please follow the link.

Maintenance and support

We can continue to monitor if the app works properly, fix bugs on time, and prevent errors. We offer maintenance and support services for a $1,000 subscription.

AI integration

If you want to integrate AI tools into the server side of your product for analytics, task automation, or customer service purposes, we can make it possible with REST API development.

DevOps services

FAQ

What is the backend?
The backend of an application refers to the server-side components that handle the logic, database interactions, authentication, and server configuration. Backend is responsible for the actual functionality of a website or a mobile app, including data storage and retrieval and other processes that happen behind the scenes.
How long does backend development take?
The duration of backend development varies greatly depending on the project's complexity, scale, and specific requirements. On average, a moderate project might take around 2 months, but smaller projects could be quicker, whereas more complex systems with a lot of integrations and custom functionalities might take 6 months to a year or more.
Why did you choose PHP for backend development?
We chose PHP for backend development due to its wide adoption, strong community support, and rich ecosystem of frameworks and tools that enhance productivity. As for the frameworks we largely use Laravel for its elegant syntax, built-in security features, easy database migration system, as well as creating our own solutions based on this framework.
What is your experience with cloud platforms and which ones do you support?
Our team has extensive experience with deploying and managing backend systems on cloud platforms. We support several leading cloud service providers, including but not limited to, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) with services like Google Cloud Storage and Google Cloud SQL, Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Amazon S3 and Amazon RDS, as well as specialized database services such as MongoDB Atlas and Redis Enterprise Cloud. Our experience ensures that we can select the best cloud solutions tailored to your project's needs for scalability, reliability, and performance.
How do you handle data migration from an existing system to a new one?
Data migration is handled with careful planning and execution. We conduct a thorough analysis of the existing data structures and develop a migration plan that minimizes downtime and preserves data integrity. This typically involves data mapping, extraction, cleansing, import, and verification processes. We also offer additional support for complex migrations that may require customized scripts or tools to ensure a smooth transition.
