There are several ways to prevent server overload:
1 - Load balancing:
distributing traffic across multiple servers to ensure that no single server is overwhelmed.
2 - Caching:
storing frequently accessed data in memory to reduce the number of requests to the server.
3 - Horizontal scaling:
adding more servers to handle increased traffic, rather than upgrading a single server.
4 - Vertical scaling:
upgrading the resources of a single server, such as adding more RAM or CPU.
5 - Throttling:
limiting the number of requests a client can make to the server in a given period of time.
6 - Optimizing database queries:
database queries that are not optimized can cause the server to slow down or crash
7 - Monitoring and alerting:
setting up monitoring and alerting systems to notify the administrator of any issues with the server.
It's important to use a combination of these strategies to ensure the best results.
