Load balancing : Traffic is distributed across multiple servers to prevent any one component from becoming overloaded. Load balancers can detect when a component is not responding and put traffic redirection in motion. Please note that these are presented as general best practices.

In most cases, I’ve seen it’s either through bad coding, incorrect use of data access frameworks, or simply architecture that has grown over the years into something that became overly complex in terms of participating components and services. Impressive results I have to say! Well – there are many answers to this.

While paid marketing strategies like Google Ads play a part in our approach as well, enhancing our organic traffic remains a major priority. The higher our organic traffic, the more profitable we become as a company.

It’s happening because of new features being added and the fact that we sometimes don’t have a second thought on packages that we constantly add and update, or think about the complexity of our code. This saves clients traffic — sometimes traffic which the client is paying for. The script was finished with a non-zero code.

Rather than buying racks and racks of servers that need to handle the maximum potential traffic and be idle most of the time, it seems that serverless’ method of paying by compute is proving to be beneficial to the bottom lines of organizations.
