Proactive measures include implementing robust monitoring for server resources (CPU, memory, disk I/O, network traffic) with alert thresholds, regularly optimizing application performance and database queries, employing comprehensive caching strategies, using a CDN, planning maintenance windows during low traffic periods and utilizing appropriate HTTP headers (like 'Retry-After'), and having a scalable server infrastructure or hosting plan that can adapt to traffic fluctuations.
