Namecheap

In recent years, Namecheap has been focusing on developing new products and services to better serve its customers. One of the key products that has been developed by Kettle is the domain search service, which makes AI predictions and processes over 50 billion requests annually.

To build the domain search service, Namecheap used a combination of technologies including Go, React, and Kubernetes. Go is a programming language that is designed to be efficient and highly concurrent, making it ideal for building large-scale web applications.

One of the key challenges that Namecheap faced when building the domain search service was processing the large number of requests that the system receives. To address this challenge, the company implemented a caching layer that stores frequently accessed data in memory. This allows the system to quickly retrieve data without having to perform expensive database queries.

The domain search service has been a huge success for Namecheap, processing over 50 billion requests annually. The system has proven to be highly reliable, with a 99.99% uptime rate. The microservices architecture has allowed the company to easily scale the application as needed, while the caching layer has enabled the system to process requests quickly and efficiently.
