Building Scalable Web Apps for High-Volume Eid & Ramadan Sales in Emerging Markets

The Ramadan Traffic Surge

Modern retail websites witness up to 500% traffic spikes during Ramadan and Chand Raat sales. Websites that are not configured for high loads crash instantly, resulting in lost revenue and negative customer feedback.

Scaling Strategies

Use Redis for fast session and database caching. Offload static assets like product images to local CDNs, and optimize database queries to ensure response times remain under 200ms even under heavy load.
