In the design and development of larger systems, we primarily adopt an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) approach. This means that we shape the planning in collaboration with the client to enable us to start real operations as soon as possible. We develop modules based on real needs. The primary advantage of this approach is that it allows users to become familiar with the product as early as possible, enabling us to gather a wealth of feedback.
In the case of high-traffic and load-intensive portals, the greatest challenge in web development today is not merely creating a functioning page on a server but finding solutions capable of handling the heavy load on the database, even with millions of simultaneous visitors. In such scenarios, the solution lies in segregating databases by function onto multiple cloud-based servers. When developing high-traffic portals, we leverage Amazon Web Services (AWS), which can distribute the load across multiple servers, ensuring optimal portal performance and speed, irrespective of the load.
Load balancers distribute the load between web fleets and database replicas in multi-server solutions, enabling our business portals to operate seamlessly even with over a million simultaneous visitors. On the AWS platform, we can infinitely scale the system according to the load, all of this happening automatically, ensuring that the portals operate optimally not only under high load but also during fluctuations, automatically consuming precisely the amount of resources and server hours required for smooth operation.
