Scope

The e-sports market in 2020 had a volume of roughly 947 million US dollars. And this only covers direct revenues such as tickets, licenses or merchandising. Moreover, this market is growing from year to year and many big companies currently try to position their products and services.

Requirements

The goal of the project is the creation of a large social network for the e-sports sector. Users should be able to talk about the latest trends and compete with their game results. Moreover, the platform should be able to display short clips recorded in video games.

Solution

The central access point for the social network is a mobile app which was developed in a hybrid manner for various platforms. To also provide a stable access when user numbers are growing the backend was architected with scalable microservices written in GoLang that are running on the platforms of various cloud vendors.
