Shopware Agency · Performance & hosting
We're a maxcluster Gold Partner and host Shopware shops that take real load every day. Redis, Elasticsearch and Varnish are standard with us – not an upgrade.
Brands that work with us
What we use
maxcluster Gold Partner
We know the maxcluster toolchain in detail: PHP-FPM tuning, OPcache, Redis as session and cache adapter, Varnish configuration and bot protection.
Caching strategy
HTTP cache, object cache, page cache, reverse proxy – we analyze what can be cached where and where personalization breaks that.
Database and search
MySQL indexes, slow queries, Elasticsearch or OpenSearch for product search and category listings – we optimize where it hurts.
Load tests before peak phases
We simulate real load before campaign launch and find bottlenecks before your marketing does.
Real Shopware success stories
Become our next success story
Discuss your projectBlack Friday, a TV spot, a newsletter blast – and suddenly TTFB goes through the roof. It's rarely the hardware and usually plugins, bad caching, missing indexes or a poorly configured Varnish.
What matters for Performance & hosting
Performance is rarely a hardware problem, so we never start by simply throwing resources at it. We measure first: where the latency builds, which plugins block requests, where database indexes are missing, how cleanly Varnish kicks in. Only once it's clear where the milliseconds are lost do we define measures with real leverage. That way every step pays off on your TTFB instead of just improving the feeling.
Caching decides whether your shop carries a peak or not. Redis, Elasticsearch and Varnish are standard with us, but they only work when they fit your catalog and your campaigns. We configure the cache layers around your real load patterns and validate them with load tests before the hot phase begins. We'd rather find the bottleneck in a test than live at two in the morning during the promotion.

We host on infrastructure built for Shopware and have a direct line into the maxcluster team.
Three cache layers as standard
Redis, Elasticsearch and Varnish are included with us and never cost extra.
Load tests before the peak
We simulate your peak loads before the season starts and find the bottleneck in a test, not live.
Cause, not symptom
We don't throw hardware at the problem, we measure where the latency actually comes from.
