Fastly Waiting Room
Premium feature
The Fastly Waiting Room is a feature to help you manage high traffic volume on your site and prevent site overload. It assigns a delay for new user requests which allows existing users to finish what they’re trying to do.
The Fastly Waiting Room:
-
Prevents site overload by intelligently handling the influx of new visitors.
-
Fairly distributes the site traffic so that each user has equal chance of access. During high-demand events, promotions, or sales, this can be highly useful.
-
Reduces server load so performance is not hindered.
For more, see Fastly Waiting Room.
