Enhancing Global Sports Application Architecture for High-Traffic Event Performance

The client’s existing system faces issues such as slow load times, limited device support, accessibility non-compliance, and inefficient delivery workflows. These challenges hinder reliable real-time updates of event data, athlete profiles, and live results during major international competitions, leading to reduced fan engagement and platform stability under high traffic conditions.

A global sports federation aiming to deliver real-time content and engagement during international sporting events with improved responsiveness, accessibility, and scalability.

• Achieve a 70% reduction in response times for content delivery during high-traffic events.
• Enhance system scalability to support doubled user load and traffic volume.
• Ensure compliance with WCAG 2.0 accessibility standards to support users with disabilities.
• Improve deployment and update workflows to minimize delays during live event coverage.
• Increase fan engagement levels through faster access and inclusive experience.
• Reduce technical debt and optimize legacy code for better performance across multiple device types.

• Implementation of edge content caching infrastructure with adaptive TTL algorithms to minimize latency during live matches.
• Refactoring of front-end architecture using a Model-View-Presenter (MVP) pattern to support scalable multi-device UI development.
• Integration of a continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline with automated testing for rapid release cycles.
• Accessibility testing workflows to ensure WCAG 2.0 compliance across diverse devices and assistive technologies.
• Refactoring of legacy codebases to optimize performance, maintainability, and future scalability.

• Real-time data feeds of sports results, athlete profiles, and event updates
• Accessibility tools and testing frameworks
• Content delivery networks for optimized global reach

• Achieve response times that are 70% faster under peak load conditions
• Support twice the current user load with scalable frontend architecture
• Ensure content delivery is consistent and low latency across all regions
• Maintain high system stability and uptime during live events
• Conform to global accessibility standards (WCAG 2.0)

The project aims to significantly enhance user experience by reducing content response times by 70%, doubling system scalability, and achieving WCAG 2.0 compliance for accessibility. These improvements are expected to boost user engagement, ensure platform stability during high-traffic international events, and provide a reliable, inclusive experience for a global fan base.
