Optimize E-commerce Server Performance

Job ID: 37568770

Budget: $15 – $25 USD

I am experiencing multiple setbacks with my e-commerce server, which is prompting a great need for a performance upgrade. Specifically:

- The loading speed of the website is considerably slow.
- The server response time is longer than ideal.
- My server has been crashing frequently.

There are less than 100 concurrent users on my website indicating the issues may largely be due to server inefficiencies rather than high traffic engagement. It's also important to note that my server operates on a dedicated hosting platform.

I'm looking to hire a freelancer proficient in server management, website optimization, and familiar with working on dedicated hosting providers. A proven track record in increasing server performance, reducing loading times, and stabilizing servers will be highly appreciated.

We`ve always had a slow Time to First Byte. Currently it feels like we are under "attack": down time and spikes in response time.

Architecture:
AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, PHP 5.4, AWS RDS (MariaDB).

Which tools help? What do we have to pay attention to and how should we proceed?
