High availability / traffic

The optimization of response time and the availability of services and contents are heavily impacting elements in terms of results (turnover, length of visit, page views, ...) of an e-business / marketing / service site

Latency is taken into account in the search engine result page (Google)

40% of visitors do not wait more than 3 seconds for a page to display (Forester)

At each step of 100ms latency, sales decline of 1% (Amazon)

The underlying technical issues are many:

  • Management of peak loads related to seasonality and / or campaigns
  • 24*7*365 availability of service 
  • Optimization of response time of a site with heavy traffic, at several million pages / views per month
  • Management of publishing and cache processes on sites with high volumes of content and update
  • Access times to rich media (photo, video, ...) particularly in an international context
  • Management of the impact of third party services (content syndication, front office inclusions...) on the performance of response time and availability of services
