## A composable website traffic management system

redirection.io lets you create _rules_, that apply to all the requests handled by your website traffic.

Each rule is made of two parts:

### Triggers

_define when the rule has to be executed_

- Request **URL**, scheme, domain, path

- Request **Method**  
> "When the contact form is POST'ed, redirect to the thank-you page"

- Presence, absence, value of a request **HTTP header**  
> "If the device is an iPhone or an iPad, then redirect to the Apple store application page"

- The **Status code** that is about to be sent back to the user

- Restrictions on the **IP address** of the request  
> "This page should only be accessible from our offices IP address"

- Apply only to a limited share of your traffic using **sampling**

### Actions

_define what has to be performed on the response_

- Redirect 301, 302, 307 or 308, to the **Location** of your choice

- Response **header**  
> "Add Cache-Control headers to every 301 redirects, to avoid browsers caching them without time limits"

- Change the **HTML meta tags** (title, description, keywords, etc.)

- Change the **robots.txt** content

- Send a **404 or 410 HTTP response**  
> "This page will never exist again, and there is nowhere to redirect the client. Let's send a 410 error at the server level, without requesting our backend application"

- Inject **HTML code** in several parts of the response body  
> "– Chris, can you please change the GA token?"

> Our goal is to have a top-tier e-commerce site in terms of performance. Before, redirect management was burdening our application and slowing down the experience. With redirection.io, we have decoupled these issues: our site is faster, and our business teams are autonomous. It's an essential component to maintain our operational excellence.
