1. Make website assets work better
One of the most basic ways to make a website run faster is to optimize its files, like images, scripts, and stylesheets. Use methods for compression, take advantage of browser caching, and don’t use too many large media files. You might also want to use lazy loading to delay loading non-essential files until they are needed. This will cut down on the time it takes for the page to load at first.

2. Set up a content delivery network (CDN)
A information Delivery Network (CDN) is a group of servers spread out across the world that send web information to users based on where they are located. CDNs lower latency and speed up the delivery of web pages by caching static material on servers that are closer to users. Using a CDN is a tried-and-true way to make websites work better around the world.

3. Caching and compression in browsers
Allow browser caching to save static files on users’ computers so they don’t have to download them every time they visit. You should also use compression tools like GZIP to make the files you send over the network smaller. These changes make a big difference in how quickly pages load.

4. Make database queries run faster
Database searches that aren’t optimized can cause websites to load more slowly. DevOps teams should work closely with engineers to make sure that database queries are optimized, that unnecessary queries are removed, and that databases are properly indexed. To find and fix bottlenecks, it’s important to keep an eye on and profile database speed on a regular basis.

5. Adopt the microservices architecture
In microservices design, a single-piece application is broken up into smaller, separate services. Each service works on its own and talks to other services through APIs. This modular method makes development, deployment, and scaling go more smoothly. Microservices design makes things more flexible, which makes it easier to fix performance problems and make some parts of the website bigger.

6. Use A/B testing to check performance
In A/B testing, two copies of a webpage are compared to see which one gets more users to interact with it and converts better. Use A/B testing to find optimizations that users like, especially for changes that affect speed, like page load times.

7. Use services in the cloud
Cloud services offer infrastructure and resources that can be scaled up or down, which helps businesses handle different tasks well. By scaling up or down resources based on demand, cloud platforms let DevOps teams improve the speed of websites. Monitoring, analytics, and automatic tools are also available through cloud services, which makes things run more smoothly overall.
