IGNEK Way of Liferay Implementation
At IGNEK, Liferay development is a platform engineering discipline. We follow a structured methodology, from architecture and setup through integrations, migration, and performance, to deliver solutions that are upgrade-safe, maintainable, and built on what Liferay natively does best.
How IGNEK Approaches Liferay Development
Every IGNEK engagement is built on three foundations: a clear engineering philosophy, a structured delivery process, and the right technology choices for the platform.
Engineering Philosophy
How we think about Liferay — platform-first decisions, upgrade-safe patterns, and native capabilities before custom code.
Engineering Philosophy
Delivery Methodology
An eight-phase process covering every stage from architecture design to performance validation and automated testing.
Delivery Methodology
Technology Expertise
Deep knowledge of the full Liferay technology ecosystem — frontend, backend, integrations, deployment, and search.

Our Liferay Delivery Methodology
Eight phases. Every project. From architecture decisions on day one to automated testing before go-live, this is exactly how IGNEK delivers a Liferay engagement.
01Liferay Platform Architecture
- We define a strong architectural foundation to ensure scalable and maintainable Liferay enterprise portal solutions.
- Define the high-level portal architecture
- Prepare architecture diagrams to document system structure and interactions
- Map business requirements to appropriate Liferay entities and capabilities
- Select system components based on functional and non-functional requirements
