Case Study: Migu Video achieves 35x faster core system performance with MongoDB

Migu Video boosts core system performance 35x with MongoDB

Migu Video, a leading sports video content provider in China, faced significant challenges scaling its platform to handle massive traffic surges during major events like the Olympics and World Cup. Its traditional relational databases created capacity bottlenecks and performance issues, threatening the viewing experience for its hundreds of millions of users. To address this, Migu Video worked with MongoDB, utilizing MongoDB Enterprise Advanced and Ops Manager.

By migrating its core systems to MongoDB's distributed document database, Migu Video achieved a 35x performance increase in its core system. MongoDB provided the scalability to handle up to 200,000 queries per second and 100,000 transactions per second, ensuring zero failures during peak events. The flexible data model also allowed for rapid development of new features like the interactive "bullet screen." This solution from MongoDB empowered Migu Video to reliably support over 900 million users.
