What the platform had to solve
The platform needed to move to new infrastructure and relaunch its public site without interrupting a subscriber base that depends on it during market hours. A migration of this kind carries a specific risk profile: subscriber access, historical content and third-party tool integrations all have to survive the move intact, and the window for problems is narrow when users are actively trading.
