PowerSchool Modernizes its Legacy System with AWS and LaunchDarkly

PowerSchool, a leading K-12 education technology solutions provider, successfully migrated its legacy system to AWS using LaunchDarkly for feature updates and Amazon DynamoDB for database management. The migration was done while maintaining a consistent experience for millions of students served by the company. By leveraging feature flags and incremental migration, PowerSchool reduced its codebase from 100,000 lines to smaller, more manageable domain services, improving productivity and work satisfaction among developers. This modernization journey allowed them to innovate confidently with minimized disruption for customers.
