Many nonprofit organizations often face the challenge of limited resources. To attract public attention and sponsorship, they frequently organize events to boost visibility. In this context, website stability becomes the key to supporting high traffic.
As the core gateway for information dissemination, the website’s operation not only affects the flow of information but also influences public trust in the organization. However, due to financial constraints, nonprofits often initially choose more economical shared hosting services. While cost-effective, shared hosting resources are limited, leading to slowdowns or outages during high-traffic events or major occasions, becoming a major obstacle to organizational operations.
This issue is not unique to nonprofits; it was also the critical challenge faced by Organization N.
Organization N, a well-known nonprofit promoting smart agriculture in Taiwan, has been actively pushing the ESG global trend forward by collaborating closely with government institutions. They manage a large-scale website using multi-server architecture, integrating extensive databases and multi-layered application systems, and have successfully attracted numerous sponsors over time.
However, during a significant launch event attended by the current president, Lai Ching-te, the influx of visitors presented a major opportunity for exposure. Yet, the shared hosting service they used collapsed under the surge of real-time traffic, leaving the website entirely paralyzed and causing chaos at the event venue.
Although moving to a cloud platform was suggested, setting up VMs, deploying the environment, and launching the website on most cloud platforms would require at least 3.5 hours. This not only would result in a missed exposure opportunity but could also impact fundraising efforts and jeopardize the trust established with government agencies.
Golden Hour Rescue with YJ-Cloud: 250% Deployment Efficiency Boost
In the face of urgency, Organization N consulted Yuan Jhen Information’s technical advisors through a business referral. Following an emergency technical assessment and discussions, YJ-Cloud was identified as the optimal solution.
With precise and efficient configurations from the Yuan Jhen engineering team, YJ-Cloud’s Docker containerization technology was implemented. This enabled seamless deployment automation, from code submission to application deployment, enhancing deployment efficiency by 250%. Even under sudden traffic surges, YJ-Cloud's elasticity ensured a smooth browsing experience for every user.
From assessment to implementation, the engineering team completed the process within an hour, successfully relaunching the website before the president and other distinguished guests arrived. This allowed Organization N to showcase its fundraising plans and vision perfectly to the public.
“The stability of IT infrastructure is crucial,” said an operations staff member at Organization N. “With limited funds, we must choose the most cost-effective solutions. If the website had crashed, potential donors wouldn’t have been able to see who we are.”
Cost-Effective Solutions to Ease Financial Burdens
On mainstream cloud platforms, costs are often calculated at standard rates without long-term contracts or commitments. For businesses with fluctuating traffic, this pricing strategy can impose significant financial pressure, especially during peak traffic periods when resource demand far exceeds regular needs.
Unlike other platforms, where VM costs (represented by the red slashed area in the diagram below) are incurred regardless of traffic, YJ-Cloud eliminates these baseline infrastructure fees. Organizations only pay for the actual traffic resources used.
- Cost Optimization: Saved substantial cloud service fees, enabling more efficient use of funds.
- Enhanced Stability: Eliminated slowdowns or outages during peak traffic, ensuring uninterrupted website operation.
- Crisis Response: Provided 24/7 professional IT support to swiftly address unexpected issues, safeguarding system operations.
- Traffic Scalability: YJ-Cloud’s flexible architecture ensured smooth handling of high-traffic events, boosting exposure and gaining more attention for activities.
YJ-Cloud’s usage-based pricing significantly reduces financial burdens while ensuring flexible operations without compromising performance, enabling effective cost control.
