Black Friday. Singles Day. Prime Day. Outages on these days, or even service degradation, can spell doom for retail companies. When so much revenue hangs on such a short period, it’s important to make sure your systems are ready to handle the extra traffic. For engineers tasked with supporting these critical services, this time of year can be more than stressful.
To make it through these difficult periods, you’ll need to shore up your systems and strengthen your resilience. You need to reduce the risk of what can fall out and understand how to respond efficiently when things do go wrong.
In this webinar, you’ll hear from Developer Advocate Quintessence Anx on how teams can prepare for planned spikes in traffic. She’ll share best practices that can help your teams have a better on-call and incident response experience. Then talk through some stories about retailers who regularly experience peak traffic and how they handle it. Finally, Logan Life, Strategic Customer Success Manager, will share a quick demo of how PagerDuty can help your teams maintain always on services.
You’ll learn:
- Best practices for resilience you can use year round that come in handy during peak times
- Examples of companies that experience surges and how they maintain reliability
- How PagerDuty helps teams stay prepared for heightened loads on your system
