Live Streaming Portal

Challenge

A leading online games developer wanted to gamify the customer experience of streaming online games and championships to increase views and improve audience engagement. Unfortunately, heavy processing loads proved challenging for their site to handle.

Solution

HIRE FULL STACKS designed and built a web service offering access to various online broadcasts from third-party platforms (Twitch, Youtube) plus interaction with fellow portal audience members. The gamified viewing experience included:

  • The distribution of in-game items after completing quests related to broadcasts
  • Awards for permanent viewing streaming
  • Simple market-boosting mechanics, such as random audience promotion

After launch, the new web service handled more than 500,000 connections online during peak hours.
