Unraveling the journey behind the project’s launch

The client: “Extending our service offering, we realized the necessity for a highly scalable backend system.”

Initially, our core business revolved around addressing the unmet needs of underserved ethnic communities by delivering online video content. Over time, we expanded our broadcasting package to encompass sports channels and college sports events.

To ensure seamless content distribution and substitution for our Internet TV service, we recognized the need for a robust backend system. Architecturally, it had to possess scalability and high availability, while also providing dependable failover capabilities. It was imperative for us to establish a reliable infrastructure that could meet the demands of our growing user base and deliver uninterrupted streaming experiences.
