Hello everyone,
I'd appreciate any insights, or source suggestions regarding site
traffic and necessary adjustments.
For example, I'm using a simple digital download page for an indie
artist. Not a ton of traffic, not a ton of concurrent requests.
Was thinking about introducing something similar for a bigger
artist(though still not huge) and I'm concerned for any trouble more
demand might create. On the web server side, I'm not worried, as it's
on a Pair high volume account.
I am concerned where I might need back-ups or adjustments to code and
database queries. Not quite sure where to start in researching this -
any ideas or keywords would be appreciated.
Backups are just space, so make sure you have enough to meet your
demands. Most hosts will add an extra 10G or something for a flat rate
per month so as you need more, you can buy more backup space.
Database queries are harder. Fill up your database with random data and
see which bits go slow. If you're using mysql, enable slow-query-logs
and see what shows up. If you're using something else, see the
appropriate documentation to see if they have an equivalent.
Make sure you use random data because if you use the same data for each
record, the database won't be able to utilize indexes properly.
