Some websites have small or moderate traffic most of the year. However, there are times when it suddenly increases. It happens because they offer seasonal products or services like Christmas decorations, swimsuits, or summer holiday trips. A large number of visitors coming to the webpage during such seasons can even cause its crashes. Fortunately, it’s possible to adjust the servers’ configuration to handle the occasional traffic spikes. We’ll show you a scalable and cost-effective solution that we implemented in one of our projects.

Security is one of the elements of infrastructure configuration, which is very often overlooked. Often administrators focus on delivering functionality and fulfilling requirements, while not caring about securing the infrastructure against attacks, believing that it's probably going to be fine.

Websites play an increasingly important role on the Internet, sometimes even generating huge profits. Even the smallest interruptions in their operation can cause losses amounting to hundreds or even thousands of dollars. That is why when performing Drupal development services we attach great importance to ensuring that our work is as reliable as possible. How?

At Droptica, a very important role is played by the servers, where we host websites and applications developed by us. By implementing Infrastructure as Code in our company, we have managed to increase the stability and availability of services and optimise the time necessary to implement changes in the infrastructure.
