AWOK.com, one of UAE’s leading ecommerce websites, was facing challenges due to its rapid growth. The company was investing significant resources to ensure the website was accessible and loading in an acceptable time. However, these resources were needed elsewhere to manage the growth of the business – managing logistics to guarantee fast delivery, attracting new customers to the site, adding new products to the site, and all of the other activity that goes with a thriving ecommerce business. AWOK.com found that after just 270ms, its potential customers might leave the website and look elsewhere. A slow website means lost sales – a risk an ecommerce website cannot afford to take. Additionally, AWOK.com’s success meant it was a bigger target for criminals looking to disrupt its business by overloading or hacking the website. In order to maintain its position as an ecommerce leader, it was vital for AWOK.com to keep its customers’ trust and keep its website secure.

AWOK.com’s website is now accelerated by CDNetworks and delivered by its in-country infrastructure. CDNetworks has implemented its CDN solutions to optimise the efficient delivery of the cacheable and non-cacheable dynamic content on the AWOK.com website – vital for an ecommerce site where content such as images, pricing and stock levels change constantly. The website is now delivered to customers via local points of presence, meaning visitors to the site can enjoy a faster, more reliable and a more consistent connection than before. AWOK.com is able to select what elements are accelerated and which are not, meaning they can save on bandwidth costs while focusing on elements where speed is vital. To protect the website, CDNetworks also provided its web application firewall, meaning attempts to hack the site can be thwarted, and customers can visit the site and trust their payment details and other sensitive data remains secure.
