Live entertainment platform handling 200K RPS across streaming, payments, and creator monetization
Mayflower operates a top-50 global live entertainment site at massive scale—200,000+ requests per second, millions of concurrent users. The stack is production-heavy (OpenStack, Kubernetes, Kafka, ClickHouse, Redis, MongoDB) with active infrastructure migration underway (adopting Kafka and Kubernetes). Pain points cluster around high-load system architecture, microservices decomposition, and payment compliance, while projects span VR, fraud detection, and creator partnership automation—revealing an org scaling toward both technical depth and monetization complexity.
