Case Study: Leading Nationwide Professional Football League achieves 100% uptime and scalable fantasy football performance with ZeroLag

Leading Nationwide Professional Football League - Customer Case Study

Leading Nationwide Professional Football League turned to ZeroLag to launch a high-profile online fantasy football experience for the 2010 season. The league needed an enterprise-grade private cloud platform that could handle extreme transaction-heavy database demands, real-time non-cacheable data from live game feeds, and rapid growth without relying on the public cloud.

ZeroLag implemented its Xenon LAMP stack with a horizontally scaling, sharded database architecture, initially using 26 pairs of principal and mirror database servers partitioned by leagues. The result was a faster, more reliable platform that delivered 100% uptime during the 2013 season and helped the league outperform competing fantasy football sites, all at a lower price point and with less hardware.
