High volume operators
When everybody arrives at once, the homepage should not be the problem.
Competition traffic is rarely polite. A campaign lands. A prize catches fire. A deadline approaches. Everybody turns up.
Beaver is designed so ordinary storefront traffic stays light while the important transactional paths remain controlled.
Live architecture
Built for the rush.
-
Edge served storefront
Live
Cacheable storefront HTML is served from the CDN edge, closer to the visitor and away from the application.
-
Live counters
Live
Changing figures are punched through the cached page instead of making the whole page dynamic.
-
An isolated critical path
Live
Checkout is transactional. Browsing is not. Not every click deserves a database query.
-
Operator isolation
Live
Each operator runs as its own user in its own process pool, so one busy brand does not share a runtime with another.
-
Unattended jobs
Live
Draws and cart release every minute, journeys every five minutes, rebilling nightly.
-
Nightly offsite backup
Live
The database leaves the primary environment every night.
The number
You will notice there is no big number on this page.
No "handles 100,000 users a minute". No "zero downtime under sell out load". Those claims need a load test or real operator evidence, and we will publish them when we have them.
- We will publish the number when we have earned the number.
Multi brand
Several brands, one platform.
Each operator gets its own identity, runtime and storefront, while sharing the platform underneath. Talk to us about how that would map onto your brands.
