Ambientsystem.pl – Advanced Technology for Fire Safety

Ambient System has been providing advanced solutions in the fire safety industry for over 20 years, specializing in the design, production, and distribution of fire automation systems, such as DSO (Sound Warning Systems) and SSP (Fire Alarm Systems). As a developer, I designed and implemented the ambientsystem.pl website, which showcases the company’s offer, combining high functionality with reliable technology. The project was developed with the needs of the safety sector in mind, ensuring stability, optimization, and comprehensive support. Below, I present the details of the implementation and applied technologies.

Objective of ambientsystem.pl and its Target Audience

The ambientsystem.pl website was created for Ambient System – a company whose mission is to provide highly specialized sound and fire safety systems for buildings and construction facilities. Its purpose is to present the product portfolio, ensure easy access to technical information, and facilitate contact with clients. The target audience includes fire system designers, property managers, installers, and companies looking for professional solutions in DSO and SSP. My task was to develop a platform that meets these expectations with modern technical infrastructure.

Technical features of ambientsystem.pl

In this project, I implemented advanced technical solutions that meet Ambient System’s business requirements:

  • Responsiveness and Accessibility – Frontend architecture using CSS Grid and media queries, ensuring compatibility with mobile and desktop devices, compliant with WCAG 2.1 standards.
  • Product Catalog – Dedicated custom post types for DSO and SSP systems, with dynamic data loading through REST API and asynchronous filtering in React.
  • Contact Form – Query mechanism with server-side validation, CSRF protection, SMTP integration, and lead storage in the database with AES-256 encryption.
  • Knowledge Section with SEO – A database of technical articles about fire automation, optimized for keywords (e.g., “DSO systems”), with accelerated indexing via Google Indexing API.
  • Backups and High Availability – Automatic backups on Amazon S3 with versioning, replication between regions, and Zstandard compression for continuity.
  • Performance – Server-side caching with Varnish, multimedia optimization through Cloudflare with AVIF format and preloading of key resources in HTTP/2.
  • Technical Documentation – On-demand PDF generation module using mPDF, cached in Redis and distributed via Fastly CDN.

Technical challenges and solutions

During the implementation of ambientsystem.pl, I faced several complex technical challenges, which were solved as follows:

  • High number of database queries – The expanded product catalog generated excessive load. I implemented Redis with persistent data storage for caching queries and Elasticsearch for full-text search of specifications.
  • Large technical files – PDF documents and system schematics caused delays in loading. I used Cloudflare CDN with server-level optimization and lazy loading via Intersection Observer API.
  • Delays in forms – During high traffic, leads were not being correctly stored. I implemented RabbitMQ for asynchronous query processing and throttling at the Nginx level.
  • Outdated cache – Product updates were not immediately visible. I applied Varnish with custom VCL, purge mechanism based on webhooks, and Edge Side Includes for dynamic sections.

Technologies used

For the creation and maintenance of ambientsystem.pl, I used the following technologies:

  • Yoast SEO – Metadata optimization, dynamic XML sitemap generation, and automatic search engine notifications about new content.
  • UpdraftPlus – Automatic backups on Amazon S3 with replication between regions and AES-256 encryption.
  • Cloudflare – CDN with Argo Smart Routing, Brotli compression, and protection against DDoS attacks through rate limiting.
  • Redis – In-memory caching with sharding and persistent storage for queries and user sessions.
  • Varnish – Server-side caching with custom VCL, supporting grace mode and ESI for dynamic blocks.
  • Lighthouse – Automatic Core Web Vitals audits integrated into the CI/CD process in GitLab.
  • RabbitMQ – Task queuing, such as email sending and lead storage, with retry mechanisms and dead-letter queues.
  • Elasticsearch – Product search with fuzzy matching and weighted results based on technical specifications.
  • Fastly – Additional CDN for parallel distribution of documentation and multimedia with geographical optimization.
  • Memcached – Lightweight cache for small objects like API responses and session data.

Management and technical support

Ambientsystem.pl is a project that requires continuous monitoring and optimization. I regularly update the system and plugins, perform tests in a staging environment with full backups stored on Amazon S3. I use Cloudflare, Redis, and Fastly to ensure high performance during increased traffic, while Varnish and RabbitMQ ensure the stability of dynamic processes. I monitor indexing with Elasticsearch, optimize SQL queries using compound indexes, and manage cache during content updates. There is the possibility of expanding the website – integration with CRM systems, adding a training section, or a certificate module – to continue supporting Ambient System’s mission in providing advanced fire safety solutions.
