Frequently Asked Questions

How does Ivinco handle legacy code and technical debt?

For SafeTraces, the work started with an audit of the technical debt and reverse engineering of the legacy software. Alongside it, the team developed a completely new product with a backend and frontend, delivered urgent features on time and provided rapid support and bug fixes.

Can Ivinco work with AWS Lambda and serverless architectures?

Yes. SafeTraces' VeriDART project runs on AWS Lambda, PostgreSQL, Node.js, and React. Our team works across cloud platforms and architectures — serverless, containerized, and hybrid. For SafeTraces, Ivinco set up an internal replica of the infrastructure, so engineers could develop and test without touching production. This is particularly important for serverless architectures where local testing requires tools like AWS SAM or LocalStack.

How does staff augmentation work with Ivinco?

A lead engineer is your contact, and the team does the work. The team is fully remote. Ivinco bills the team's hours against a monthly volume that you can raise or lower, with no recruiting fee. For SafeTraces, it meant outsourcing development without hiring additional internal resources.
