With 3.7 million unique users and over 14 million visits per month, k-digital is one of the most important news services in Austria. Using a single Drupal CMS instance as a content hub, k-digital operates multiple popular portals, including kurier.at, futurezone.at, k.at, profil.at, film.at, events.at, freizeit.at, motor.at, and lust-auf-oesterreich.at.

As the project grew and evolved alongside the company, it has became a significant challenge to:

Maintain stable performance.
Design scalable long-term architectural decisions.
Retain project know-how and robust development workflows despite staff turnover.
Deal with legacy code.
Keep the documentation up-to-date.

In this session, I'll share how our team overcame these challenges during the development and maintenance of an enterprise-level project. I'll provide insights into our project architecture and give a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like to be a developer at k-digital.
