While the website was officially launched in September, 2019, the two La Redoute Tech Center IT teams have been working on the project for the past several months. Located in Roubaix, France and Leiria, Portugal, they both have over 100 employees. The teams are motivated to share their projects and experiences, especially with regard to the DevOps approach, testing methods, continuous integration processes and tools, event-oriented architectures, and process mining, not to mention partnerships and collaborations with various schools and universities, and participation in numerous meetups and conferences.
According to Ambroise Gressier, La Redoute’s Director of Organization and Information Systems, “Being outward looking and operating in a network with our ecosystem are part of the company’s DNA. In the digital world, we are convinced that technological leadership is first and foremost acquired by sharing projects, innovations, and knowledge.”
