Auza.net hosted websites survive May 10 elections traffic surge

Auza.net hosted websites www.dyrdam.com and www.boholnewsdaily.com recorded user

traffic several times than normal daily traffic due to the interest of many Boholanos around

the world on the first automated elections on May 10, 2010.

DYRD-AM Worldwide Broadcas peaked at almost 5,000 page views in a 24 hour period

between May 10 to 11 when it started to publish the unofficial tally of the COMELEC results

based on the official website that published the precinct counts. This number of page views

is 20 times higher that normal.

Most users did not notice slowdown of the sites.

This unprecedented capabilityof Auza.net hosted websites to survive usage spikes is proof of

the company’s robust server infrustructure hosted at a US facility. When Boholanos needed

to get information about the elections, the websites did their job.
