Building for Scale and Speed: How Turnitin Accelerated Innovation with Micro-frontend Architecture on AWS

Migration and Modernization Blog



Turnitin migrated from a monolithic frontend to a micro-frontend architecture on AWS to improve scalability, development efficiency, and feature deployment speed.

  • Previous architecture had tightly coupled client applications with multiple backend services
  • Development teams faced bottlenecks and code reuse was difficult
  • New micro-frontend architecture decoupled frontend components into independent units
  • Implemented using AWS services like CloudFront, S3, Lambda, and API Gateway
  • Migration process was incremental, replacing monolithic components gradually

Key outcomes included faster feature delivery, improved cross-product functionality, better scalability, and increased developer satisfaction. The new architecture positions Turnitin to rapidly innovate in educational technology.
