Why some internet sites crash because of traffic while others don’t?
In: Technology
Keeping internet sites up requires computing power.
The website needs to have enough machine/computer power to handle the loads of traffic. That’s why large companies like Google and Amazon have large digital warehouses with large machines.
The site would crash if there’s more internet activity than the computer power necessary to support it. Computing power costs money so smaller websites/companies can’t handle as much traffic as Google or Amazon etc.
