Scaling Meddy’s AWS InfrastructureCategory: Deployment, Database, Data, Infrastructure, github
This article is written by Kareem Ayesh and Yasser El-Sayed. Meddy was founded in 2016 and has since had a lot of success thanks to the scale it hit.
This was a relatively simple endeavor that required to just have an Application Load Balancer in front of an Autoscaling group that was managed by our ElasticBeanstalk.
We were using our own build system since there was no AngularJS build manager for a hybrid render, and our own system had a lot of bundling inconsistencies and caching issues that resulted in unoptimized builds and high load times.
One of the main reasons that we did a hybrid render was a worry that SEO would be tarnished with a dynamic render; and one of the main reasons that our website was hanging was due to request spikes caused by bots.
