During admission and exam result announcements, institutional websites experience massive spikes in traffic. If the web server is not optimized, this traffic can overload resources, resulting in website crashes and frustrated students.
To prevent downtime, host your site on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) with elastic resource allocation, rather than basic shared hosting.
Additionally, configure caching layers (like Redis) and static assets on a Content Delivery Network (CDN). This reduces the direct load on your primary server, allowing it to handle admission submissions smoothly.
