Speed
The Product Filter & Search engine runs thousands of queries for hundreds of Shopify stores daily. Our queries take from 40 to 50 milliseconds to process, which is considered ideal and remarkably fast.
Product Filter & Search has been installed mostly by store owners who are living in the USA. Our data centers are distributed over many different locations and many of them are located in the USA. We decided to set up our data centers this way as we want to ensure that our customers don’t often experience data discrepancies and the latency of requests is significantly lowered.
What we have done to improve Shopify’s page load time
We totally understand why page speed is important as it impacts greatly your customers’ shopping experience, your store’s conversion rate, and discoverability. We have made every effort not to let Product Filter & Search affect the page load time in your Shopify store:
- We have been adopting the AWS Well-Architected Framework. The framework helps Product Filter & Search to achieve service availability, reliability, and performance efficiency.
- We constantly improve our system so that our app can maintain a 99.99% uptime.
- We have used caches to reduce the load on our database and protect it from the slower performance causing crashing at times of spikes.
- Our code is optimized for faster execution speed and more efficient memory utilization. Consequently, we can achieve shorter Shopify’s page load time.
- We have been minifying our JavaScript and CSS files to give customers a better user experience as minification can remarkably improve site speed and accessibility.
