Case Study: Dubsmash Powers Millions of Users with Stream's Feeds Infrastructure

How Dubsmash Powers Millions of Users with Stream

Dubsmash, a social video platform, faced the challenge of building a scalable and reliable infrastructure for its user activity feeds. The company attempted to create an in-house feed service but ultimately found it to be a significant challenge in terms of cost, performance, and speed. Seeking a more effective solution, Dubsmash turned to the vendor Stream for its Feeds as a Service product.

By implementing Stream's Feeds infrastructure, Dubsmash gained the ability to scale to an infinite number of users and make real-time adjustments to feed ranking and sorting. The solution provided the necessary speed and reliability, allowing Dubsmash to focus on enhancing the user experience. This partnership supports Dubsmash's massive scale, which has grown to over one billion video views per month.
