Faster, More Reliable Infrastructure
Our database, Redis, and application servers now live on the same private network, with added redundancy across the stack.
What’s New
Airpult is now noticeably faster and more reliable.
We’ve finished consolidating our infrastructure so that the database, Redis, application servers, and weather API all run on the same private network. Requests that used to cross the public internet between services now stay entirely inside our network.
How It Works
Colocating these services removes a large chunk of latency from every page load and API call. Internal requests no longer pay the cost of traversing the open internet, which also means fewer failure points between the pieces that power the site.
Alongside the move, we’ve added more redundancy across the stack so a single failing component no longer takes anything user-facing down with it.
What’s Next
We’ll keep tightening the setup and adding headroom as traffic grows, with the same focus on keeping forecasts, maps, and the API fast and dependable.
