DOI: USING CONTAINERIZATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF CYBERSPORTS PLATFORMS
Vadym Bychkov , Chief Technology Officer at Hawk Live LLC Batumi, GeorgiaAbstract
This study examines the application of containerization in the development and deployment of esports platforms. Utilizing a comprehensive methodology including literature review, expert evaluations, and experimental modeling, the research investigates architectural solutions, scalability, fault tolerance, and security aspects of containerized esports systems. The findings demonstrate that containerization, coupled with microservices architecture and orchestration tools like Kubernetes, provides significant advantages in terms of flexibility, scalability, and resilience. Results indicate that while containerization offers substantial benefits, its successful implementation requires careful planning and optimization. The research contributes to the understanding of practical aspects of container technologies in esports platform development, offering methodological approaches and architectural solutions for creating high-performance, reliable systems capable of meeting the growing demands of the esports industry.
