| Washington Auto Show
Challenge: In 2005, the Washington Auto Show,
which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to
the Washington Convention center each year needed a
robust hosting solution for their web site several weeks
surrounding the show, but did not need or want to pay
for that same solution for the other eleven months out
of the year.
Solution: Vansam Software, who
also designed the Auto Show’s web site that year, developed
a custom web hosting option for the Auto Show that was
tailored to meet their unique traffic pattern. During
the Show, Vansam put the show's web site
on a dedicated sever so that it could handle the tens
of thousands of visitors that it received each day.
Once the show was over the web site is moved to a “virtual
hosting” environment for the balance of the year.
Client Benefit: The Auto Show paid
for only the service it needed, when it was needed and
the entire time had a robust, reliable web-hosting plan.
Technical Solution: RedHat Linux operating
system, MySQL Database, PHP development language.
About the Auto Show: The Washington
Auto Show, a holiday tradition for Washington area families
for more than six decades, opens its doors to hundreds
of thousands of visitors each year.
