Drupal4Gov Webinar: Dealing with unprecedented scale during COVID-19 and how to prepare for the next high-traffic event!

Now more than ever people need reliable information from government organizations. During COVID-19, people were going online in record numbers to find the latest information and guidance from official sources. We saw this with some of the health-related sites we host — one client even experienced a single-day high of 103 million hits!

Staying online during times of unprecedented scale can be difficult if you’re not prepared or don’t have the right hosting provider. Want to learn how to get ready for your next high-traffic event and get the inside track into the processes and architecture that amazee.io uses to keep our clients online when traffic spikes? Then you’ll want to join Michael Schmid, Head of Technology and Founder of amazee.io, for his upcoming Drupal4Gov webinar. See the details below.
