Adopting New Technologies in a Modern Enterprise
summary
Conde Nast consolidates 20+ brands (100M+ monthly uniques, ~1B pageviews) onto a single API platform built with Node and React, launches first product in 10 weeks and completes migration in four years, then standardizes on TypeScript. Small architecture team favors a low-friction FYI process over formal RFCs to surface new repos and avoid fragmentation. Experiments include serverless, voice skills, AR/VR prototypes, and a five‑person ML research group that builds custom computer‑vision models for runway detection, brand identification and image semantics.
