Case Study - Achieving Lightning-Fast Performance with JAMStack

Overview

IT Telkom Jakarta's web portal serves as a critical hub for information dissemination and interaction within their academic community. The challenge they faced was delivering a lightning-fast, highly responsive, and reliable user experience to their stakeholders. Our task was to modernize their web portal and elevate its performance to meet and exceed industry standards.

Our Approach

JAMStack Implementation:

• Architectural Transformation: We transitioned the existing web portal to the JAMStack architecture, separating the frontend from the backend and adopting a decoupled approach. This architectural shift laid the foundation for improved performance and scalability.

• API Integration: We integrated dynamic functionalities through APIs, ensuring real-time data retrieval while minimizing server load.

Performance Optimization:

• Asset Optimization: We meticulously optimized images, scripts, and stylesheets to reduce file sizes and enhance loading speed.
• CDN Integration: Employing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), we strategically distributed content globally, minimizing latency and maximizing page load times.
• Caching Strategies: We implemented advanced caching mechanisms, ensuring that frequently accessed content remained readily available, reducing server requests.

Achieving the Objectives

Our efforts culminated in the following achievements:

• Sub-2 Second Load Times: The revamped web portal consistently delivered page load times below 2 seconds, enhancing the user experience significantly.
• PageSpeed Score of 90+: Through careful optimization and best practices implementation, we consistently achieved a PageSpeed score exceeding 90, ensuring swift content delivery and exceptional user satisfaction.
