Peak-day hosting

Ticketing that holds on your busiest morning.

A resort's busiest hour can bring more traffic than a quiet week, and that is when an old ticketing site gives up. We take over what you have, fix what breaks under load, move it to hosting that grows with the morning, and run it for you.

// what matters here

What is different in this industry.

We start with what you have

A review of the code, the hosting and who holds the keys, written up plainly before anything changes.

Scales with the morning

Hosting grows for a powder morning and shrinks overnight, so you are not paying for peak capacity in July.

Tested before the season

We load test against your busiest day so the first powder morning is not the test.

Run for you, visibly

Monitoring, alerts and backups you can see, and a named team that looks after it.

Ticketing that holds on peak days

Hypothetical. Not a client, not a result.

// The problem

A resort's online ticketing slows to a crawl on powder mornings and holiday weekends, the agency that built it has moved on, and nobody on staff knows how it is hosted.

// What we would build

We take over the ticketing site, fix what breaks under load, move it to cloud hosting that grows on busy mornings and shrinks overnight, and run it for you with monitoring, backups and a plan for the next peak.

// questions

Questions we get about this.

Can you take over a ticketing site another agency built?

Yes. We start with a review of the code and hosting, and tell you what we found before we quote the work.

Which cloud does resort ticketing run on?

Usually AWS or DigitalOcean, in a Canadian region where that matters, in an account you own.

Will peak-day hosting cost much more in the off season?

No. It shrinks when traffic drops, so off-season hosting costs a fraction of a peak month.
