[[File:WebModelDiagram.drawio.png|400px|Web Architecture Reference]]


* Formalize infrastructure for flexibility and reduced complexity.
* Favor minimal, flexible infrastructure
* Utilize customer-location tracking name server like GDNS.
* Track customer location via GDNS or similar
* Use minimal instances with a network load balancer like LVS.
* Use network load balancers (LVS, IPVS) for scaling
* Compare prices of dynamic computing services, beware of tech lock-in.
* Compare prices and beware of vendor lock-in
* Employ efficient frontend TLS decoder like HAPROXY.
* For TLS: use HAProxy for fast frontend, Envoy for compatibility
* Opt for fast HTTP cache like VARNISH and Apache Traffic Server for large files.
* Caching: Varnish, Apache Traffic Server for large content
* Use REVERSE PROXY with TLS decoder like ENVOY for service compatibility.
* Prefer open-source stacks and database caches (e.g. Memcached)
* Consider serverless service for standard runtimes, mindful of potential incompatibilities.
* Use message queues and buffers for workload smoothing
* Employ load balancing or native services for dynamic computing power.
* For more examples: [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_infrastructure Wikimedia Cloud Architecture], [https://github.com/systemdesign42/system-design System Design GitHub]
* Use open source STACKs where possible.
* Employ database caches like MEMCACHED.
