Krowdpop

Implemented Krowdpop; a real time ticketing system for a successful crowdsourced KPOP concert, Unite The Mike, which included popular artists Ailee, Jay Park, and San E. Due to the high traffic when tickets opened, a load balancer was used with AWS EB to keep the back end services scalable and responsive.

Implemented a voting system that was the backbone of the crowd sourcing platform which was developed with Laravel and data was stored in a MySQL AWS RDS server. Due to the complex statistical analysis required for the voting predictions, large queries were ran and cached ahead of time using a Redis server.

The payment system was integrated with Stripe and a custom email, using AWS SES, was sent out to users upon confirmation. Tickets were cached upon check out and managed on a Redis server and freed if not purchased within a given time frame. Notifications were also given to users on the site itself in real time using sockets from a node.js backend service.
