Media and portals

When a page goes round the networks

An article going viral multiplies traffic a hundredfold in minutes. We host news sites and portals with an aggressive page cache, a CDN and web servers added on demand.

What it takes

  • Pages served in milliseconds, even under a viral peak
  • Images and videos that do not saturate the servers
  • Immediate publication despite the cache
  • Protection against the attacks that target media

What we put in place

  • Page cache (Varnish or nginx) purged on publication
  • Cloudflare CDN for images and static assets
  • Redundant web servers behind a load balancer
  • Replicated read database

The offer

  • "Media" high-availability architecture
  • Critical managed services with 24/7 on-call
