Key Strategies for Enhancing System Efficiency
1. Code Optimization
- Minimize HTTP Requests: Combine CSS/JS files and use sprites to reduce load times.
- Enable Compression: Use Gzip or Brotli for text-based resources.
- Optimize Images: Compress images without quality loss (e.g., WebP format).
2. Database Performance
- Indexing: Add indexes to frequently queried columns.
- Query Optimization: Avoid
SELECT *
and use efficient JOINs. - Caching: Implement query caching with tools like Redis.
3. Server & Network
- Load Balancing: Distribute traffic across multiple servers.
- CDN Integration: Use Content Delivery Networks for static assets.
- Enable Gzip: Reduce transfer size for HTML, CSS, and JS.
4. Frontend Tips
- Lazy Loading: Load images and scripts only when needed.
- Reduce Redirects: Minimize chain redirects to improve speed.
- Browser Caching: Set
Cache-Control
headers for static content.
