Jindo is a sports betting SaaS technology company. They offer sportsbooks a suite of B2B products and tools to assist their traders in managing their financial liabilities. The company was looking for a technology partner and turned to the NIX team to develop a trading platform from scratch that will stand out from the competition. Akita is a subscription-based trading platform for sports betting traders that provides real-time web access to odds and live score data.
Develop a web platform from scratch that will display data about bets on sports events in real-time
Integrate trading platform with client’s API that aggregates data from different bookmakers’ offices and displays it on dashboards
The NIX team created the Akita platform, which aggregates all odds on the current sporting events and displays the highest odds on bets on the dashboard. The trader can filter out the most interesting bookmakers, compare who has the steepest odds, and make the bet. Also, the system shows a history of betting price changes.
NIX security engineers made the system protected by using OWASP security best practices such as secure authentication, access control, logging security incidents, and more.
There are two main user roles on the platform:
The Akita trading platform features cloud-native design based on service-oriented architecture (SOA), containerization, and automated deployment. The system collects data about dozens of sports, hundreds of leagues, and thousands of events from different providers—processing more than 500 updates a second during peak times. The Akita platform processes this data and allows traders to view it on an easy-to-use dashboard updated in real time.
For the frontend we chose React JS, which is well-suited to providing a flawless user experience. The backend is built with Golang, which has proven to be an excellent choice for scalability and high performance.
The NIX team used Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to simplify microservice orchestration and improve operational efficiency. EKS allowed us to secure the system’s ability to withstand the load from integrations and a large number of users at peak times, by increasing or decreasing the number of servers on-demand.
This ensures a flawless user experience during popular events such as the World Cup or the Olympics when the highest user activity is expected, and reduces resources to a minimum during the off-season, saving money.
We developed custom web services that ensure flawless platform operation and provide the client with required functionality. All services are mostly built on the base of Golang technology and WebSocket communication protocol.
Jindo received a high-performance and secure platform for sports betting traders that provides access to real-time data from bookmakers around the world, and assists traders in making bets based on data summarization and preliminary analysis. Akita covers more than 500 different betting markets across more than 35 different sport types and provides accurate data.
Custom services developed by the NIX team ensured platform scalability, resilience to high load, and future-proof functionality.
