Development of highly loaded systems

AVADA MEDIA offers services for the development of High Load Systems and applications. We make that is reliable, efficient, and scalable software .

Highload systems meet the highest requirements for fault tolerance and are capable of simultaneously serving a large number of requests.

Advantages of highly loaded systems:

• High performance
• Flexibility
• Safety
• Scalability

The answer is simple: if a business scales and gradually attracts more and more customers, but still does not have a highly loaded system, its servers often fail.

For some companies, high-load applications are a necessity without which they cannot function, while others are just beginning to consider upgrading their systems to meet growing demand. In any case, if the business is expanding, it will need powerful software to handle all the requests.

For example, if you are planning to create an application that requires the participation of millions of users, scalability and high performance of the application are uncontested requirements. Ignoring this fact will inevitably lead to reputational and financial costs.

Here are some of the problems you may encounter:

• Too slow or too long time to load the page
• It took too long to connect to the web server
• Random errors
• Partially missing content on load (for example, when some images are not displayed)
• Decreased user activity and customer outflow

Dynamics and flexibility

We focus on flexibility when developing large-scale web applications. With a flexible architecture, it is much easier to make changes and additions, which means reduced costs, time, and effort. Keep in mind that flexibility is an essential characteristic of any fast-growing software system. High-load systems enable early identification and resolution of functionality problems without significantly increasing the cost of software architecture.

Gradual project growth

Given that predicting the size of your customer base in the coming years is not an easy task, it is best to focus on scalability. It’s the same with the architecture of the application. Step-by-step solutions are the backbone of successful software development.

If you are launching a new application, it makes no sense to immediately provide an infrastructure that can handle millions of users events per day. We recommend using the cloud for hosting new projects, as this allows you to reduce the cost of server services, and also makes it easier to manage the project.

In addition, many cloud hosting services provide private network services, allowing developers to securely use multiple servers in the cloud and scale the system.

The scaling method for most web applications involves 4 steps:

• Load analysis
• Identifying Areas Most Affected by Stresses
• Moving highly loaded areas to individual nodes and optimizing them (load balancing)
• Re-analysis of the load

Understanding load balancing

There are two most important requirements: availability and redundancy for us, as a software service provider. How long it takes for a server to respond to a request depends on its capacity. When one of the components fails or cannot process requests, the server becomes overloaded. Both the customer and the company suffer from it.

The problem is solved by load balancing. Balancing is about distributing the workload across multiple servers. An incoming request can be received from an overloaded server and sent to the one with more available resources. We use special applications for load balancing.

Benefits of using load balancing:

• It is easier for system administrators to manage incoming requests, reducing the waiting time for users.
• Users are provided with a faster and smoother service. They are not limited to waiting for a single struggling server to complete its previous tasks. Instead, their requests are sent to a more accessible resource.
• Service providers have less downtime and higher throughput. Even if they encounter a complete server failure, it will not affect the end user as the load balancer will immediately route his request to a running server.
• System administrators may experience fewer failed or stressed components. Instead of one device doing all the tasks, load balancing consists of multiple devices that do more work if needed.

Thanks to many years of development experience, we know all about how to create secure architectures that can withstand high loads. Our experts take into account all requirements, such as efficiency, reliability, suitability, scalability, and combine them with our deep knowledge of database administration, big data processing, and cloud computing.

We offer fast and responsive solutions implemented using the latest technology. Our specialists provide high-load applications in the fields of finance, banking, e-commerce, education, and many other industries. Our customers receive fault-tolerant systems that meet the needs of fast-growing businesses.
