12Commerce Features
Backups & Platform Reliability
Platform reliability keeps stores fast and safe: scheduled automated backups, industrial job queues with retries and locks, smart caching layers with version-busted keys, live revalidation workers so price changes appear immediately, and layered rate limiting plus honeypots to absorb abuse.
What you can do with backups & platform reliability
Daily backups, background job queues, caching, and hardening — the invisible engineering underneath.
Automated daily backups
Scheduled database backups protect against data loss.
Background job fleet
AI processing, POD exports, and SSL issuance run in queues with retries and locks — dashboards stay fast.
Smart caching
Redis and HTTP caching keep hot pages instant; keys version-bust on updates for freshness.
Hardened gateway
Rate limits and honeypots absorb spam and abuse without slowing other stores.
The problem it solves
A slow or lost store is existential for small merchants. Self-hosted setups demand constant patching, and abuse and traffic spikes can take anyone else’s store down.
Who it is for
Merchants who want uptime, speed, and data safety without hiring an ops person.
How it works
A simple workflow that fits how stores already operate.
The platform runs operations
Backups, jobs, and caching run on schedules you never manage.
Updates appear instantly
Price and content changes reach shoppers immediately through revalidation workers.
Abuse is absorbed quietly
Rate limiting and honeypots handle bots and scraping without touching your store.

Frequently asked questions
Answers about this 12Commerce feature. Anything specific to your plan or store can be confirmed with the team.
Is my data backed up?
Yes. Automated backups run on schedule, and merchants also retain full data export rights.
Will heavy tasks slow my store?
No. Heavy work — AI, POD exports, SSL issuance — runs in background queues separate from the storefront.
How do price changes reach customers?
Revalidation workers refresh storefront content so updated prices appear immediately.
Do I need my own hosting setup?
No. Hosting, caching, backups, and hardening are managed on the platform — included, not extra.
