OUR STRENGTH

Competitive Benchmarking

“We used to struggle during extreme web traffic as one of Asia’s highest traffic media sites. OpenResty helps us stay engaged with our audience even with thousands of cache purges per minute and over 20 million requests per hour. ”
Technical Director at a Large Media Website

Case Study

See how our customers benefit from OpenResty Edge

  • Leading HR SaaS Company
  • Major Travel Booking Website
  • Major News Website
  • Solution cost reduced by 80%, continuous improvement in performance, regular upgrade for security vulnerabilities, automatic scale clusters and reschedule traffic.

    Pain Points

    High cost, evolving API management needs, low concurrency, slow response time, limited scalability and extensibility, data security

    Solution

    Migrate to OpenResty from F5, purchase Edge 50 nodes and plan to expand to 200-500 nodes. Build API services, HTTP / TCP / UDP multi-protocol support, extend managed SSL certificates, combined real-time load metrics

  • O&M labor was reduced from 7 to 1, speed up response time by 100+ ms on average, protected from 1,000+ daily attacks.

    Pain Points

    Massive user base, slow website that could't handle peak traffic, outdated server solutions that couldn’t support growing development and business needs

    Solution

    Migrate from Nginx and purchase 100 OpenResty Edge nodes. Network partitioning and virtualization, self-built CDN network, request rewrites, rate limiting, HTTP/TCP/UDP protocols

  • Supports thousands of cache purges per minute, and over 20 million website visit requests per hour.

    Pain Points

    Third-party CDNs couldn't respond to fast cache purges with arbitrarily complex conditions, and cost far exceeded budget

    Solution

    Purchase Edge 50 nodes and develop private CDN with multi-domain SSL self-service
