About the project
TV Azteca, one of Mexico's largest broadcasters, runs a portfolio of high-traffic websites where page speed matters.
We built an automated system that runs Lighthouse performance tests across those sites every day and reports the results.
Scope
What our team worked on
Scheduling and cost control
Serverless scheduling so the test machine only runs when it's needed.
Highlights
Problems we solved
01 Paying for a machine that sat idle
The test runner lived on an always-on AWS virtual machine, and the client was concerned about the cost.
How we solved it
Wrote a scheduled Python AWS Lambda that starts the machine once a day, runs the tests and shuts it down again.
Outcomes
Results
- Machine running hours cut by about 90%, from always-on to the daily test window
- The client kept their daily performance reports
