Design

While Gloss core concepts encompassed the site’s overall product delivery, rapid member growth and changes in technology impeded Gloss’ service delivery to its customers.
According to the CEO, Blair Dods, “We were experiencing rapid growth from our initial infrastructure investment and we quickly had to find a way to meet our bottom line targets within a set time for maximum client satisfaction.”
Gloss needed to develop its system’s capability to sustain its user needs and avoid crashing during high traffic. It also had a host of new products and features to introduce to its clients.
Verviant carried out infrastructure optimisation by upgrdading MySQL and stabilising Apache at the backend to ensure optimal thoroughput of the website during navigation by website visitors. Verviant also set up a continual monitoring system to ease user overload on the server.
Our Design team made significant changes to website’s overall design by adding exciting features such as video, photo galleries, blog and social networking.
Further upgrades and optimisation to the system included: shopping cart, administrator, logon, and search engine functions.
The site has been able to incorporate community features that enable users to interact freely within the site and add to the Gloss Magazine community of users.
