1. Optimize server performance: By improving the processing capacity of the server, you can improve the overall speed and efficiency of your e-commerce application.
2. Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN): A CDN distributes the load of delivering content across multiple servers to reduce latency and server load. This can significantly improve the performance of an e-commerce application.
3. Implement caching: Caching data can help to reduce the amount of time it takes for data to be accessed, particularly for frequently accessed data.
4. Utilize a scalable infrastructure: A scalable infrastructure allows you to increase or decrease the resources of your application as per the demand, which can improve its overall efficiency by reducing the time it takes for a user to access the site.
5. Reduce database queries: By optimizing database queries, you can reduce the load on the server, and increase overall efficiency. Using stored procedures can significantly reduce database query time.
6. Optimize code & images: Optimizing code and images can lead to faster load times and improved performance. Compressing images and minimizing the number of scripts and style sheets can help to reduce load times.
7. Implement security measures: Ensuring your e-commerce application is secure can improve efficiency by reducing the risk of downtime caused by cyber-attacks or data breaches.
8. Utilize a distributed database: By distributing your database, you can reduce the workload of your server and improve the performance of your e-commerce application.
9. Utilize a message queue system: A message queue system can help with task scheduling, improving the efficiency of your application.
10. Use microservices architecture: Microservices architecture can support the separation of components into smaller, independent units, which can make it easier to develop and scale an e-commerce application. It can also help with load balancing and fault tolerance.
