With significant surges in online traffic, Peak 10 Nashville actively monitored the hourly traffic surges on Rivals.com to ensure that the site operated efficiently throughout the day.
The most-followed signing period for college sports, National Signing Day is the first day a high school senior athlete can officially sign a binding National Letter of Intent for college football. Rivals.com provided around-the-clock coverage of the event, including exclusive video and radio interviews and up-to-the-minute updates.
"National Signing Day is the biggest day of the year for Rivals.com in terms of traffic to their site from sports fans seeking signing updates," says Ken Nelson, VP and GM of Peak 10 Nashville. "We take pride in meeting our customers' individual needs and our capability to increase bandwidth on-demand was a significant factor in the Rivals.com site remaining available for online visitors worldwide."
Peak 10 announced last month it signed an agreement with Collexis to provide the company with a fully managed hosted environment.
