Snail on Steroids, or The Old Technology Can Still Be Gold

Livesport’s websites are visited by more than 75 million people a month from all around the world. Over 50 million sports enthusiasts have already downloaded one of their mobile apps in the search for fast sports results and scores, statistics and more. They have to ensure they are ready not only for a large audience, but also prepared to handle peak traffic spikes on their servers during the biggest sports events.

Today, modern technology is capable of handling tens of thousands requests per second - but what if you can't use them? Livesport had to give the older technology wings so they could handle about 500,000 req/sec. And Pavel will now show you how they did it.
