Hello, I suggest first we investigate the current server to understand the possible root cause of the slowness and latency. There could be several reasons such as network, db, web server, php handling etc. If we can find the root cause then i can optimize the server and if root cause is related to some infrastructure limitations then we can migrate the domain without any effect on your business. My commitment is this: if i cant find the root cause of the problem as well as cant solve the problem then we can mutually cancel the project and i can pay the cancellation fee - so i state honestly and clearly : if i cant succeed than there is no payment. Kindly have a look at my previously completed projects and reviews/ratings in order to qualify my experiences for your requirements. Let me know if you have any questions & requests, Thanks, Pardus.

Hi.. i will investigate the server configuration and log files, monitor the processes and then possibly propose and fix spike issues. However if i will find your server unable to bear the burden of 200+ concurrent connections then i will migrate whole site to the new server.. i have experience in server to server site transfer as well .. let me know if you're interested in my service for a very reasonable price.

I've checked your site and I can see that the server hasn't been optimized yet. Does your server have any control panel or no control panel on board?. I'm looking forwards to your response. Thank you.

Hi There I'd suggest using CDN service for streaming videos. Moreover I'd like to know more about your overall app architecture. Although I suggest moving your app to AWS, but sometimes making some small changes works. So I recommend to know the overall arch before making any decision. Besides I'm super expert in AWS. That's my profile where you can view my past AWS experiences. https://www.freelancer.com/u/joystick220.html Thanks Joy

Hi, My name is Dragomir and I'm here to help you and land my first job on Freelancer and get rated. I'm not sure what type of server you have, but first goal is to find the cause of your latency issue. It may be a server resources or Apache configuration. Apache is resource demanding and it can be a possible cause of problems. If that is the case, possible solution can be replacing Apache with Nginx or putting Nginx in front of Apache to handle incoming connections because Nginx is extremely resource friendly. It takes much less memory and slightly less cpu for the same number of connections. I will need one day to find the cause of problem and one day, possible two days to work on the solution. Also, job unrelated I'm huge hip hop fan and that is main reason I applied for the job . I prefer oldies like Tribe Called Quest, Dilated Peoples, Ugly Duckling, De La Soul and similar :) Cheers Best regards, Dragomir
