The Architecture Behind 40 Deploys a Day at Luxury Presence

Luxury Presence, a company powering over 50,000 real estate websites, transitioned from a backend-for-frontend (BFF) architecture to using WunderGraph Cosmo to improve development efficiency and reduce duplication. This architectural shift was driven by the need to unify fragmented systems and meet increasing customer expectations, enabling up to 40 daily deployments and faster feature rollouts with fewer engineers. The adoption of Cosmo allowed for a progressive migration, replacing REST endpoints with GraphQL interfaces, and fostering a consistent development environment with shared TypeScript types. This change facilitated a more streamlined release process, improved developer velocity, and reduced complexity for new engineers by eliminating the BFF layer. Additionally, the visual schema tools in Cosmo aided teams in understanding system connections, while the platform's collaborative features and customer support contributed to a culture of shared development focus and reduced operational friction.
