Magento Performance Optimization

While working on our projects we found out that almost every Magento store needs performance tweaking and even if you think your store is fast it may not be so for your customers.

What we offer is a thoroughly selected set of actions aimed at speeding up any Magento store. It's time to stop breaking your brains, benchmarking and installing additional software in hope to make your store at least a bit robust - just contact us now and our project manager will be back to discuss the details.

Here is a brief explanation of what the service includes:

Analysis

Before we start actual performance work we have to study your store and server thoroughly. Our engineers will have a close look at your setup: server hardware and operation system, installed software and its versions, store setup and performance techniques which are already applied. We also conduct performance tests using a number of tools, including independent 3-rd party measurements which show actual visitor experience imitating client's browser.

After this done, we have precise figures of your store performance which you could compare to the figures you get after our performance optimization measures.

The analysis part takes about 15-20 hours and can be purchased separately. As a result you'll have a list of recommendations how you can improve performance of your store.

Tuning and Configuration

Web server
We study and perform software change/upgrades, make sure all versions are correct, install/compile apache, nginx and other web servers and their modules, thoroughly select loaded modules, do web server related optimizations.

Database
After thorough analysis we can recommend and perform database configuration that better matches your store, load balancing, separating read and write databases.

Caching
We find out and install the best caching engines for both PHP and Magento and make sure they correctly interact with each other. Sometimes it makes sense to move sessions and other information to a cache rather than keep it in the filesystem or database.

CSS and JavaScript
This includes proper configuration of code and web server to give out CSS and JS pieces in the most fast and correct way. This can include compression, files combining, making sure visitors receive only necessary files.

Media content
In most cases it makes sense to distribute static media in a different way than HTML - it can be a different web daemon, moving media to a subdomain, distribution across several servers or moving it out on a CDN.

This is a very brief and general service description, please contact us now to know how we can improve YOUR store!
