Software development for e-commerce: Musicnotes success story
Musicnotes.com used software development for e-commerce to launch a cloud-based SaaS with Opinov8.
Digital Music Store
Musicnotes is a leading e-commerce platform for digital sheet music, serving musicians worldwide with instant access to thousands of arrangements across all genres and skill levels.
Breaking the Monolith
Musicnotes operated on a legacy monolithic system hosted across two on prem data centers. This setup limited scalability, slowed development cycles, and made it difficult to adopt modern DevOps practices. Transitioning to a microservices architecture was critical to improve agility, performance, and long-term maintainability.
Modernization for Musicnotes
Opinov8 guided Musicnotes through a comprehensive modernization journey — breaking down legacy architecture and enabling a scalable, cloud-native platform built for growth and agility.
Platform Modernization
Transitioned from a monolithic system to microservices architecture using .NET 7, Azure Kubernetes Service, and DevOps pipelines for seamless CI/CD.
Cloud-Native Scalability
Deployed services to Microsoft Azure, improving performance, enabling independent scaling, and reducing infrastructure overhead.
Strategic Collaboration Model
Started with scoped discovery and PoC phases, evolving into long-term staff augmentation — accelerating product delivery and continuous improvement.
