Website slowed down drasticaly

Hello , 

I'm using Django version 1.8.1  and Python version 2.7.12 . Suddenly since Feb '19 there has been a drastic decrease in my website's response rate.

For sure , there has been some minor increase in the no of hits, but the performance is too bad.

Initially , the thought came that the hardware of the server was old , so a new server with high configuration was bought.

We have done the new indexing also on it.

Still the sought for a higher performance is awaited.

Is it that the Django support for 1.8.1 or Python support for 2.7.12 has reduced and that is casing the website to slow down or I am missing out on something ?

Kindly help.
