We also utilize the latest technologies, such as solid-state drives (SSDs) and content delivery networks (CDNs), to boost website performance.How do you ensure scalability for clients that experience sudden traffic growth?
We offer an auto-scaling shared hosting platform, which means when any site generates heavy traffic beyond the normal, the servers can balance automatically and stop it from impacting performance on any other site within that shared hosting area. This also includes our terabyte-per-second DDoS protection, which can automatically raise defenses whenever an attack is detected.How do you handle technical issues, server maintenance, and upgrades without causing significant downtime?
We have a team of highly trained and experienced technical experts who are available 24/7 to monitor our servers and respond to any issues that may occur. Besides that, we offer backup and restore services to protect our customer’s data in the event of an outage or technical issue. In addition, we use several strategies for handling technical issues, server maintenance, and upgrades without causing significant downtime:- Plan ahead: We schedule maintenance and upgrades during off-peak hours when traffic to your server is likely lower. This will minimize the impact on users.
- Redundancy: We set up redundant servers so that if one server goes down, another one will take its place. This is accomplished through load balancing or clustering.
- Implement rolling updates: Rather than upgrading all servers at once, we upgrade them one at a time staggered. This is done by taking one server offline, upgrading it, and returning it online before moving on to the next server.
- Virtualization allows us to migrate virtual machines from one physical server to another without downtime. This is useful for performing maintenance or upgrades on a physical server.
- Testing thoroughly: Before performing any upgrades or maintenance, we test the changes thoroughly on a staging environment. This helps us identify any potential issues before they impact production.
- Having a backup plan: Even with the best planning, unexpected issues can still arise. We have a backup plan in place to quickly address any unplanned downtime or issues.
What challenges and opportunities do you see in the future of your industry?
The web hosting industry is constantly evolving, and there are several challenges and opportunities that we may face in the future. By keeping an eye on the market, we discovered some challenges we have to overcome and opportunities we are working to use in our customer’s favor.Challenges
- Increasing competition: We are trying to overcome this challenge by offering great service and developing new creative features and services to help customers.
- Security threats: To overcome this challenge, we offer our customers Free Wildcard SSL and 1 Tbps+ Protection with terabyte-per-second DDoS protection, which can automatically raise defenses whenever an attack is detected. Also, we are always searching for new ways and techniques to protect our servers and our customer’s websites.
- Scalability: We provide auto-scaling solutions to handle high traffic by:
- Implementing load balancing: Load balancing distributes traffic across multiple servers, ensuring that no single server is overloaded. This is done using hardware load balancers and software load-balancing solutions:
- Use caching: Caching can help reduce the load on servers by storing frequently accessed data in memory. This means that when a user requests the data, it can be quickly retrieved from the cache rather than having to be regenerated by the server.
- Monitor performance: Monitoring server performance is essential for identifying potential bottlenecks and ensuring that the infrastructure can handle sudden traffic growth.
- Sustainability: With the increasing focus on environmental sustainability, we took part by using 100% renewable energy to power websites.
