Major player in sport betting comparison, present in 9 countries, Wincomparator is a start-up founded in 2008, whose long-term objectives are statistical prediction of match outcomes and the creation of sporting banners with contextual content.
In a context of strengthening technical and architectural Wincomparator teams, my role as expert brings me to define business requirements and analyze the correlation of specifications evolutions with the deployed structural edifices.
In order to reduce the CPU time overload and database exchanges related to the continuous and sustained importation of sporting data flow provided by several global repositories, I designed and developed a new import system. Based on a file cache storage of previously imported data, and a batch update, the new system appears more effective and efficient.
The exploration of business data allowed me to highlight the structural improvment axis inherent to the initial design, against the exponential growth of received, processed and historized data (100 million of records). To significantly improve performance, organization and enrichment of the system, I work on a new database by the way of an Uml design focused on information fragmentation.
Result of a perpetual evolution, the system will be soon improved by setting modular datasets in a distributed memory cache, allowing a quick elements propagation and update, especially those which constitute the heart of the system (sport, tournament, match, bet, odd).
These research topics aim to establish a relevant base and an efficient distribution of the sporting information, materializing the necessary support to the realization of Wincomparator’s purpose, namely predictive and statistical analysis, and dynamic, combinatorial and informative sporting banners.
The strong technical expertise of Wincomparator is based on well known tools : Photoshop, Photoshop, Xhtml, Css, JavaScript (JQuery), Ajax, Php 5 (Pdo, Reflection), MySql 5 (Replication), Apache, file cache and memory cache (Memcached).
It is with curiosity that I explore the sector of online sport betting comparison, its emerging business and its awakening structural aspects. Business information systems being today at the prototype stage, I see an excellent opportunity of adventure and an achievement of a companyscaled project.
