All,
I am looking for some web application design ideas here.
I have a server X that hosts an SDK, which has the capacity to talk a piece of hardware. When I make an HTTPS request from an external PHP web application (hosted on Server Y) to Server X through curl, Server X gives JSON data as a response. I use this data to render my UI for the web app on Server Y.
The above method seems to be slow and has a tendency to fail in production if there are too many concurrent requests.
Can anybody let me know if there is an alternative to CURL or any other design people are using to pull data like this from servers?
Thanks
