Queue-it Online Traffic Management Cartridge for B2C Commerce

HOW DOES QUEUE-IT WORK? In high-demand situations, you redirect customers to a customizable waiting room and then throttle them back to your website or app in a controlled, first-come-first-served order using a standard HTTP 302 redirect.

If you’re running a product drop, flash sale, or scheduled registration you can create a waiting room that holds early visitors on a countdown page and then randomizes them just like a raffle, giving everyone a fair shot. Visitors arriving afterwards are added to the end of the online queue on a first-in-first-out basis.

Queue-it is the only virtual waiting room not implemented as a reverse proxy, so you don’t expose sensitive data. Our interaction with your system is as if the visitor entered the URL, then the Queue-it URL in the browser, waited, and entered the URL for your website again. No Queue-it end-point has payload or session data from the protected site, including credit card and/or personally identifiable information.
