MLB operates a multi-cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP) with edge CDN strategy via Fastly and Cloudflare, now adopting Terraform and Kubernetes to standardize deployment across distributed systems. The tech mix—Java, Node.js, Python, R, plus SAP and Oracle—reflects a hybrid of legacy operational systems and modern streaming/analytics tooling. Active projects in next-generation metrics, edge platforms, and fan engagement sit alongside engineering bottlenecks in high-throughput, low-latency systems and global-scale reliability, indicating the organization is scaling real-time fan-facing products against aging infrastructure constraints.
