He noted that today was a record number of users in Diia in the history of the project. Instead of 800 requests per second, as it was during the voting last year, there were 15,000 requests.
Compared to last year, we increased our capacity by 5 times (and received 20 times more requests). That's why there is a huge queue. I apologize for this situation. We will make a detailed analysis and implement organizational changes to be ready for similar waves of traffic.
He also reminded us that these are the first steps of the largest-scale development of the digital state in the world and promised that Diia would resume its work in a few hours
We will go through, record, and move to the next level. The situation is already stabilizing, and in a few hours everything will be fully operational, and everyone will be able to vote now, at night and throughout the day tomorrow.
