Case Study: Flickflyer achieves a scalable, video-powered marketplace with Rackspace Technology Managed Cloud

A Marketplace Video Platform Built on Rackspace Managed Cloud

Flickflyer is a mobile marketplace that lets buyers and sellers create short video listings because photos and descriptions often aren’t enough to judge used goods. Founded by entrepreneurs who experienced the frustration of unclear photos when buying and selling online, the startup needed a way to process and serve video-rich listings at scale while focusing on product and growth.

Flickflyer built its platform on Rackspace Managed Cloud through the Rackspace Startup Program, using YouTube for video storage and cloud resources for backend image and video processing. The quick setup and scalable infrastructure removed operational burden, letting the team concentrate on partnerships and expansion — enabling video listings, global partnerships (including Chile, the Philippines, and the U.S.), and sustained business growth.
